Interviewer instructions
212. Types of Housing. All residential apartment and flats shall be divided into the following 4 categories: "a whole flat"; "a part of the whole flat"; "a public flat" and "a dormitory".
[p. 27]
a. Whole Flats. Flats designed for living condition for a household or consisting of a few rooms shall be considered as to be "a whole flat";
b. A part of the whole flat. Flats which were given by a housing office or factory or other organizations for two families by issuing orders for both of them or a private flat in which two or more households are living shall be considered as to be "a part of the whole flat".
In case two or more households are living in a whole flat (not depending whether the flat was issued by a housing office or factory or other organizations for two families by issuing orders for both of them) one of the household shall be considered as living in a whole flat and the remaining households shall be considered as to be living in" a part of the whole flat".
In order to conduct a survey on housing provisions and condition the indicator of "a part of the whole flat" was added into the census questionnaire. In order to make distinction between "a whole flat" and "a part of the whole flat" a question "the numbering if the households in the flat" was added.
Note: Enumerators shall explain to the households living in one flat that there is no significance in numbering them as 1; 2 or 3 and ask them to decide which one of them they would like to be written under the number One. If they have disagreement on that then the Enumerator shall choose which one he/she shall write under the number One.
The Housing Census Questionnaire for the household under the number one shall include answers for questions on the total number of rooms; the size of living (or useful) area; the number of rooms; the number of permanent residents; conditions and total area of the flat. The Housing Census Questionnaires for the households (they shall be considered as living in "a part of the whole flat") under the numbers 2, 3 or 4 shall include only the number of rooms of the size of the living (or useful) area they are living in as well as the number of its own household members. And conditions of the flat shall be the same as the household's under the number one.
c. A Public Flats. A flat designed for accommodating workers or employees of factories or economic entities or other organizations shall be considered as to be "a public flat".
d. Dormitories for Students or Pupils. A flat designed for accommodating students of Universities or Institutes or Colleges for Vocation Training as well as school pupils shall be considered to be "dormitory".
