Description

Definition

This variable indicates whether there is space for kitchen (that is not in a room) in the dwelling. A kitchen is defined as a room with a window that has an overall floor space of 4 square meters or more.
Due to lack of lighting or the overall floor space being below 4 meters squares, there may not be a room for a kitchen; but there could be space in the dwelling that serves the same role as the typical kitchen.
