Part J: Housing Conditions

2. Instructions for answering questions

h. Ownership of vehicles
One of the household items we ask about is vehicles. A household which has a vehicle at its disposal is asked who owns the vehicle and what type of vehicle it is. Through these answers we obtain data on the mobility level of Israel's residents in general, and in each area in particular. This data is very important for studying the standard of living of households in Israel, and allows, among other things, to examine various trends in society. For example: the percentage of people who have a company car at their disposal or the percentage of people who lease their car.
