Where were ____ living 5 years before means -- where were you living exactly 5 years before the date of enumeration. In other words, on counting from the date of 19 June 2001 (4 Asar, 2058), where were ____. living on the date of 20 June 1996 (5 Asar, 2053) is asked to mention.

Place of residence refers to the usual place of residence.

If the place of residence five years ago is in the same district of enumeration (or the place of residence is five years or more in column five) then encircle code 1 of same district. If place of residence is in another district (or place of residence is less than five years in column 5) then encircle code 2 and specify the name of the district of residence; and also encircle code 1 if that place is VDC at that time or encircle code 2 if that place is Municipality (urban). If the place of residence five years ago is another country then encircle code 3 and specify the name of the country of residence. In the case of other country, no need to mention rural or urban (municipality)

Note: If the place of residence is another place (another district or another country) the duration of residence (in years) in this district is asked in column 5. If the duration of residence is five years or more, then it help to ask the question of this column and also to encircle code 1. If the duration of residence is less than five years, ask the place of residence five years ago; and also specify the name of the district, mentioning VDC or municipality in code 2 or specifying the name of the country in code 3.
