<p><span class="pg">[p. 43]</span></p>
<p><span class="em">Owner:</span> This is when one of the members of the household has acquired property rights to the dwelling by purchasing it with cash or on credit. At the time of the census, it is paid for completely or is being paid off in installments. This option includes premises received as an inheritance.</p>
<p><span class="em">Renter:</span> This is when one of the members of the household pays the owner or subtenant of the dwelling a certain amount of money, or a money substitute with goods or services.</p>
<p><span class="em">Borrowed:</span> This is when the members of the household occupy the dwelling without paying rent and with the express authorization of the owner.</p>
<p><span class="em">Other:</span> This is any other form of tenancy not covered by the previous options. This category includes dwellings in which a member of the household owns the structure but not the land, as in the case of squatters' settlements.
