Interviewer instructions
59. Settlement site
The settlement site is the precise location where the structure housing the household is built. It consists of two elements: the topography and the environmental risks.

The codes of the terms for this variable are:

01-Equiped mountainside: the site of the slope having benefited from development of the building site (Roads System and Public Utilities: Roads, gutters, sewers?) and build according to urban standards.
02-Unequiped mountainside: the site of the slope of the dwellings were constructed in an unregulated manner
03-Shoal: the settlement site is in a valley without any water connection, but presenting risks of flooding by rainwater.
04-Swampy shoal: the settlement site is in a valley with water flow or with a swamp and presenting an elevated risk of flooding
05-Flat zone: settlement site is flat which can present with a risk of flooding during rainy season or by floodwaters; example, flooded plains
06-Peak/summit: settlement site on a hill or a mountain presenting a risk of collapse/fallen rock
07-Near petroleum warehouses: the settlement site if around petroleum warehouses and presents risks in case of fire; example, around cisterns, around gas stations, etc.
08-Near polluting factories: settlement site is close to factories producing liquid, gaseous, or solid toxic waste. Example: chemical industries, refineries, metallurgic industries, and sawmills
09-Near airport: settlement site is inside the security limits of an airport
10- Near a railway: the settlement site is close to rails and presents risks in the event of a train accident.
11-Drains: Settlement site is close to equipment that channels water and stream and presents a flood risk related to the overflow of water
12-Near mountain or volcanoes
13-Near high-tension power cables
14-Other: All other settlement sites presenting no risk
