2. Renting - This category refers to an arrangement where money is paid periodically (weekly, monthly, yearly etc.) for the space (living quarters) occupied by the household. It includes situations where:
(i) Members of a household rent all or part of the housing unit/compound as a main tenant or
(ii) Member of a household rents part of housing unit/compound as a sub-tenant.
3. Rent-free - This category refers to a situation where the household occupies their premises (living quarter) rent-free (i.e. free from cash rent) with or without the permission of the owner.
