2001 Census
INE
Population and Housing Census 2001
The National Statistics Institute is legally obligated to carry out, in years ending in 1, the Population and Housing Census, which must be based on the population registries. The National Statistics Institute must also introduce necessary improvements to the enumeration process.
The 2001 Census incorporates many changes to improve its usefulness and facilitate responses, saving time and trouble.
We thank you for your collaboration, which is essential for this important operation to succeed.
Statistical Confidentiality
With the exception of modifications that may be made in the registry information, which INE must send to your municipality, the information requested will neither be published nor given to anyone in a manner that would allow someone to discover, even indirectly, whom the information refers to. In addition, personnel involved in the census work have the express obligation to maintain statistical confidentiality.
Obligation to provide the information
Participation in the Population and Housing Census is mandated by law. If you do not answer or if you intentionally give false information, sanctions can be imposed according to articles 50 and 51 of the Public Statistics Function Law.
If you have any questions, ask your census agent, call the toll-free number (900 15 11 20), or consult the internet site at censos2001.es. Also, if you prefer, you can complete the census on-line. To do so, you will need the following access codes:
code 1: 3T4Q6
code 2: 47Y9T
To answer the questions more easily, please read the following instructions carefully:
1. Begin by answering the Housing Questionnaire on the other side of this page:
- For multiple choice questions, mark the correct answer with an X. If you make a mistake, fill in the box completely and make an X in the correct box.
-Write your answers using capital letters and without accent marks. Use one box per letter, and separate the words with one blank space:
Municipality:
S A N _ L O R E N Z O _ D E
L _ E S C O R I A L _ _ _ _
2. Next, verify the Registry Data (the yellow sheets of paper) and:
-If any data are incorrect, provide the correct answers in the spaces found under each question:
[For example]
Name ELSA
E L I S A _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Date of birth 16/4/1953
day _ _ month 9 _ year 1 9 6 3
-If anyone on the registry list no longer lives in this housing unit, mark the reason:
Moved to another residence in this municipality []
Moved to another municipality X
Died []
Another reason []
-If any resident is not on the list, write his/her information in a blank row. (If you need more forms, request them from the census agent.)
If you modify any registry information, we will notify your municipality so that they can update their municipal registry. For this reason, it is important that you do not forget to sign the form.
3. When you have verified the registry data, answer the Household questionnaire (the red paper).
Very important: the household questionnaire should list the same persons, in the same order, as the registry data.
4. Lastly, persons age 16 or older who were working or attending school last week should complete the individual questionnaire (the lilac paper).
Use a blue or black pen (never pencil).
[The following five lines contain the names and address of the persons listed in the example case for this form.]

Cristina Haro Chaves

The census agent will stop by to pick up the completed forms in this same envelope.
Remember:
-Use a blue or black pen (never pencil).
- For multiple choice questions, mark the answer with an X. If you make a mistake, fill in the box completely and make an X in the correct box.
-Write your answers using capital letters and without accent marks. For example:
