Interviewer Instructions

Ask if if 1 room for the whole household

Universe

All households living in a single room

Notes

All households that lived in one room were asked ‘Do you share this room with any other households?’. If so, they were then asked ‘How many households?’. These two questions have been combined together in this variable for the final census data set. The questions on households sharing one room were included to measure the level of overcrowding of accommodation. If no response was given to these questions, it was assumed in coding that the households were not sharing the room. Care should be taken to ensure that households are not double counted when analysing this data as all households sharing a room would have been enumerated separately and each should have stated they were sharing a room. Each household should have stated how many other households were sharing the room, although some may have included their own household in the count.
