Question 9.- Not counting the kitchen or the bathroom, how many rooms or bedrooms does the dwelling have?

[There is a picture of question 9 from this section of the enumeration form.]

Room.- Is an area or space separated by permanent walls made of any material and that is intended to be used as a bedroom, living room, dining room, study, recreation room, etc.

Ask the question word for word and emphasize that the kitchen, bathroom(s), corridors, hallways and those rooms meant only for purposes other than living should be excluded. Example: garages, offices, cellars, workshops, stores, etc. Record in Arabic numbers (1, 2, 3... etc.) in the appropriate space the total number of rooms that the dwelling you are enumerating has.

[There is a cross-section of a house with two bedrooms, a dining room, kitchen and bathroom, and the numbers 03 filled in.]

When one of the rooms in the dwelling is a single space (such as is the case in modern apartments) that is used as a living room, dining room and kitchen, you should record it as a single room.
