Form M P-1.1

The geographical characteristics of the dwelling are recorded in this form. The municipality or commune is indicated in accordance with the "I. Kapodistrias" Law. The geographical code, sector, section, block number, etc. are specified in the relevant columns. The dwelling numbers (serial number or S/N of dwelling) will be continuous within each section and will be given by the enumerator in the order in which dwellings are enumerated (following the order in which buildings are registered in the list O-1). In the block column, dwellings located outside the Locality will be indicated by means of 4 dashes (----). The total number of respondents in a dwelling will be completed after the dwelling's enumeration.

Part A. Housing data



Question 1: Items 3, 4 and 5 will be completed only if there are residents in the dwelling on the census day.

Part B. Information pertaining to the householder, etc.


Question 4: Write down the number of rooms available for the household. If more than one household shares the dwelling, the rooms will be proportionately distributed among the households.

If more than 5 persons unrelated to each other live in a dwelling, this will be considered a collective residence.


Question 5: Item 3 refers to cases where the use of a dwelling is transferred to another party without payment, arbitrary occupation (squatting), etc.
