Occupied dwelling
[Each definition is accompanied by an illustration]
- With persons present: This is the dwelling that on the day of the interview is found occupied by at least one person capable of providing the requested data.
- With persons absent: This is the dwelling that is occupied in a permanent manner, but for reasons of work or other motives, the persons are not in the dwelling on the census days. Investigate with the neighbors the motive for the absence, complete form CPV-02-EC and put it inside the dwelling. In the space for observations of the control of the census sheet, note the day and time indicated for obtaining information.
