Q. 12 Kitchen
36. A kitchen is a room that designed and equipped for the preparation of meals, situated inside the dwelling (enter an x in the box for code 1), or outside (entry an x in the box for code 2), having adequate cooking facilities.
Record the floor area of the kitchen/kitchenette, based on the indoor surface area measured at floor level.
Considered to be without kitchen facilities are those dwellings having a summer-only kitchen, where during the winter cooking takes place in one of the living rooms; an exception are the so called "summer-time kitchens" located outside of a dwelling, built of strong materials (bricks, beams, etc.), and used all year round for cooking meals.
For dwellings having several kitchens available, only one of them will be recorded: namely the one that is best equipped and has the largest surface.
