Literal question

11. How many places have you lived, only count the places where you lived for more than 12 months?

Interviewer instructions

This question records total residence places of a household member throughout
their life time. The concept of residence place is as presented above. In other words, throughout
his life how many districts or provincial towns or abroad has this person lived in for over 12

times living in this district will be calculated as one place.
The interviewer has to meticulously ask about times and places of migration, and not ask
in a cursory way
