106b. Column A10: Place of usual living: 5 years ago

Q: Where did [the person] live 5 year ago?

This question deals with the usual place where each person was living 5 years before the census. If a person was temporarily away from home 5 years before the census, record the place where the person was living, not the place the person was temporarily visiting. Like in 106 above, if someone living in Ngamiland was away from home visiting friends or relatives in Francistown, or if someone was in hospital in Francistown, do not record the place of usual living 5 years ago as Francistown. Use the code for Ngamiland instead. If a child was attending boarding school in Gaborone, 5 years ago and was always with his family in Southern district during the school holiday, then the child's place of usual living a 5 years ago was Gaborone; he was merely visiting Southern at this time 5 years ago.

For children who are under 5 years of age at the time of enumeration, enter 000 (because this time 5 years ago they had not been born).

For a person who is living in the same housing unit now as 5 years, enter 001. For a person who was living elsewhere in the locality (as indicated on the top of the questionnaire) 5 years, enter 002.

For a person who was living somewhere else in Botswana, write down the name of the district (as described for A8), and also look up the appropriate code from the Village/Country List as above. Enter the code which is preceded by a "6" below the name of the district you have just written.

For a person who was living outside Botswana 5 years before the census, enter the name and code number for the country, prefixing the code by 7, e.g., if Lesotho, enter code 703. Lastly write 999 if the place of usual residence was not known 5 years ago.

Example: In column A7 below, Maungo, Mothusi and Mmantsheledi were born in Kauxwi while the rest were born in Tsootsha. The enumerator wrote the district for Mothus, because he was living elsewhere in Botswana. The same situation applies for A9 and A10. For example in column A8 the sample questionnaire below shows that Maungo, Itumeleng, Mbigi and Mmantsheledi usually live in this household, so they are coded 001, Mothusi usually lives in Okavango at a boarding school.

Still on the portion of the completed questionnaire below parental survival in columns A11 and A12 were recorded code 2 for those whose biological fathers or mothers are dead. Note that for Itumeleng, Balisa and Mbigi, the respondent who is their grandmother does not know whether the fathers of these children are still alive or dead as she has never known them.

135. Column A10: Place of usual living: 5 years ago
Q. Where did the respondent live this time in August 2006?
This question deals with the usual place where each person was living 5 years before the census. If a person was temporarily away from home 5 years before the census, record the place where the person was living, not the place the person was temporarily visiting. Like in above, if someone living in Ngamiland was away from home visiting friends or relatives in Francistown, or if someone was in hospital in Francistown, do not record the place of usual living 5 years ago as Francistown. Use the code for Ngamiland instead. If a child was attending boarding school in Gaborone, 5 years ago and was always with his/her family in Southern district during the school holiday, then the child's place of usual living 5 years ago was Gaborone; he/she was merely visiting Southern district at this time 5 years ago.

For children who are under 5 years of age at the time of enumeration, enter 0000 (because this time 5 years ago they were not born).

For a person who is living in the same housing unit now as 5 years ago, enter 0001. For a person who was living elsewhere in the locality (as indicated on the top of the questionnaire) 5 years ago, enter 0002.

For a person who was living somewhere else in Botswana, write down the name of the census district (as described for A8).

For a person who was living outside Botswana 5 years before the census, enter the name of the country. Lastly write 9999 if the place of usual residence 5 years ago was not known and 7999 if it is known that the person was outside Botswana although the exact country where the person was at that time is not known. Similarly if it was known that the person was somewhere in Botswana even though the exact location is not known, the code to use should be 6699.
