6.3 Section I. Housing characteristics

In this section, instructions will be presented for the questions that investigate the characteristics of the private inhabited dwellings.

If the class of the private inhabited dwellings is a premise not intended for inhabitation, a mobile dwelling, a shelter, or a collective dwelling, don't apply this section. Start the interview with the section II, List of People.


4. Kitchen
One looks to see if the dwelling has at its disposal a room or space designated for food preparation.

Room: This is a space of the dwelling delineated by fixed walls and roof of any material, except of fabric and furniture, where its occupants carry out some daily activities, like eating, resting, sleeping, and cooking, among others.

A dwelling has a room for cooking when in one of them there is a stove or fire to prepare warm food, even though it could also be used as a bedroom, living room, dining room, among others.

Consider that the dwelling does not have a room to cook when the food is prepared under sheds or in spaces that only have a roof but no walls.
