Interviewer instructions
G. Housing conditions and ownership of properties
These questions are about tools used in house construction, services available in this household (such as water, toilets, electricity), the total number of bedrooms used by the household, and ownership of properties. The head of household is asked these questions. If the head of household is absent, try to get another member of the household to answer these questions on behalf of the head of household.
Usually, if a household is using more than one house, all questions about the material used to construct the house and the electricity used in the house are to be asked for the main house where most household members live.
For Census purposes, a house is a building used by people for living. Workshops or store, places where people do not live, are not involved.
Note: Questions about house are to be asked to private households only. For collective households such as schools, hostels, camps, hospitals, etc. these questions should not be asked because they are not relevant.
Question 32: How many bedrooms does your household have?
The aim of this question is to know the number of people in the household. A "room" means a place surrounded by walls and separated from others parts of the house.
Write the total number of bedrooms used in the household, without taking into consideration if the rooms are of one house or more than one house. Don't write the rooms that are used as storage, kitchen, animal shed, or other works. Record only those used for sleeping. Remember to use two digits in writing the total number of bedrooms and shade the corresponding code.
[p. 70]
Use the following codes:
Number of rooms
[] 1 One room
[] 2 Two rooms
[] 3 Three rooms
...
[] 99 Ninety nine rooms and above
