Interviewer instructions
Questions 20 and 21:
A room or bedroom is considered to be a space or area that is closed in by walls (that go from the floor to the ceiling) or dividers (walls that go from the floor to the height of two meters, and that have sufficient surface to place at least an adult-size bed.
If the dwelling has only one room in which they also cook, you will complete 01 (one) room or bedroom in both questions.
In question 20, you should only count the rooms or spaces used by the household for sleeping.
[p. 35]
On the other hand, question 21 asks for the total number of rooms that are in the household, including the ones counted in the previous questions.
In the total number of rooms or spaces, you should count:
--the dining room, even if it is part of the kitchen (kitchen-dining room),
--the mezzanines built into some dwellings, even though they do not have some/any of the walls indicated in the definition.
You will exclude:
--bathrooms,
--kitchens used only for cooking,
--laundry areas, garages, sheds, corridors and entryways, unless they are used as a place for a person to sleep,
--Quinchos [a shelter that has a straw or thatched roof, supported only by columns, that does not have walls and is used as an area for eating] that are not enclosed.
You will register the answer according to what the person answering the census tells you.
