1.4.4. Filling the questions on housing

After this introduction, we shall now come to the filling of the housing questionnaire per se.

These questions are also to be asked to the household head. However, if the latter is not available, any person usually belonging to the household may answer the questions. For this housing questionnaire, no priority is given to the questions on housing units or on households. All questions deal with the dwelling units in the same way. In all events, the answers to the questions will be given by the person who is closest in rank to the household head.

However, the census enumerator shall strictly follow the order in which the questions are displayed, so that to not miss any of them.

Circle the number corresponding to the answer, when applicable.

In the case of a compound occupied by a single household, consider the characteristics of the main hut, without taking into account the number of rooms.

N.B: One shall never circle more than one number for a given question.
