Interviewer instructions
Question 1. Type of dwelling
Private
You should identify the type of dwelling and mark with an X the appropriate box.
You will make an X in others when dealing with dwellings such as: barges, kiosks, booths (casetas), caves, boxcars, etc.
You will mark as Premises not intended for use as a dwelling those places that are inhabited and which have not been constructed as a dwelling, like granaries, wineries, garages, etc.
[Alongside these written instructions in the rural manual are drawings representing the eight different types of private dwellings from the enumeration form.]
Collective
If it is a collective dwelling, mark an X in the corresponding box and continue directly to the questions on population. In such cases the characteristics of the building are not of interest, only the data on the people that live in these dwellings.
