Interviewer instructions
<span class="em">f</span>. The enumeration form is divided into 14 columns with the following content:</p>

<p><svar a="all" v="SE90A009 SE90A010 SE90A011 SE90A012"><span class="em">Col. 2</span>: That the names of villages or other places of residence (blocks or wards in cities) should be written on a special row and underlined. It should be noted if the village or place of residence belongs to another judicial district than the rest of the parish. The word "urban district" [<span class="lang">köpingslikt område</span>] should also be added for those rural areas where the population is concentrated, including at least 100 persons, and where the houses are concentrated along one or more streets, whereby the area takes on the appearance of a small town (like for example some suburbs, railway stations, fishing villages, loading sites, factory sites or larger rural villages). It should be noted if a place of residence belongs to such an "urban district".<br /></svar>
