Interviewer instructions
Question 2. Condition of occupancy of the dwelling

Starting with this question the information collected is only for individual dwellings.

A dwelling is considered "occupied with persons present", box 1, when at least one of the inhabitants of the dwelling is present at the time of the enumerator visit. If only persons under the age of 12 are present, return when they tell you an adult will be present.

A dwelling is considered "occupied with persons absent", box 2, when the dwelling is equipped with furniture and household goods and the inhabitants are not present at the moment of taking the census. If the absence is temporary, you should return to complete the census.

For the buildings under construction, visit and verify if any part is inhabited; if this is the case, enumerate the same as an occupied individual dwelling.

A dwelling is considered "unoccupied", box 3, if the dwelling is empty and ready to be inhabited. For example: dwellings being repaired, for rent, or recently built. The unoccupied dwellings, those in the process of destruction or demolition should not be considered.

If you marked box 2 (in definite absence) or 3 (unoccupied), consider the interview finished.
