<span class="em">Column E9: Number of Rooms in the Housing Unit</span></p>
<p>How many rooms are here in this housing unit (excluding kitchen, toilet, bathroom, garage and store)?</p>
<p><span class="pg">[p.51]</span></p>
<p>Enter, in the space provided in the questionnaire, the number of rooms used as sleeping accommodation, or as living rooms, in the housing unit where you are enumerating.</p>
<p>The following are excluded: kitchen(s), toilet(s), bathroom(s), garage(s) and store(s).</p>
<p>However, if one of these is also used for living or sleeping accommodation it should be included - for example, a room which is used both as kitchen and living room would be counted. You will find examples of these in some rented SHHA houses in the urban areas and in rondavels in the rural areas.</p>
<p>If more than one household shares one living room, count it only once for one of the households. You cannot count it more than once as this would give an overestimate of the availability of accommodation in the country.</p>
<p>In the sample questionnaire in paragraph 139, the lolwapa in which the household stays consists of three huts, so 03 is entered in the spaces provided.
