Type of housing unit

189. A housing unit is intended for habitation by one household.

190. A housing unit may be a detached house, a flat, a hut, servants' quarters, a room in labor lines, or other place intended to be lived in by one household. Ask yourself, "What kind of housing unit does this household occupy?" Tick the appropriate box. If the housing unit is not one of those listed, tick box 7 and describe it - for example "uniport" or as appropriate.

191. A housing unit, although intended to be lived in by one household, may in fact house two or more households. For example, a house or flat may be shared by two or three households. For another example, a house with a garage is one housing unit, but there may be two households occupying the main house and another occupying the garage, in which case there are three households in one housing unit.

192. Ask yourself, "How many households occupy this housing unit?" Tick the appropriate box.
