15.3 Section III. People characteristics

In this section, information is obtained for each of the people living in the housing unit.

Before requesting data for each resident, copy the details from Section II. List people and general data, their names, gender, and age, and write them down in the spaces provided. Do not forget to correct the person number when using more than one questionnaire.

For the respondent to know who to provide the information about, start with the sentence: "Now I'm going to ask you about...", and mention the name of the person you previously wrote down.

Apply questions 1 through 11 for all the people who are habitual residents, including children, as well as elderly people.

20. Commuting time to school
This question asks about the time that a person regularly spends going from his/her housing unit to school.

Pay attention to the answer and circle the option that corresponds to the stated time. For example, if they declare 10 minutes, circle option 1. Up to 15 minutes; if he/she says "one and a half hours", select option 4. More than 1 hour and up to 2 hours.

It may be that the answer is stated in terms that are not numerical, so consider the following:

[p. 334]

- A quarter of an hour is equivalent to 15 minutes.
- Half an hour equals 30 minutes.
- Three quarters of an hour is equivalent to 45 minutes.

Circle option 6. Does not commute when the person studies remotely or online and, therefore, does not need to attend an educational institution; skip to question 22. Schooling.

It considers that the commuting time comprises from the time the person leaves the housing unit until he/she arrives at the school where he/she studies, regardless of the way in which the person travels. It includes the time spent going to take the transport, the time spent waiting or transferring, and the time spent in the means of transport (public or private; motorized, animal or manual traction), even if he/she cycles or walks.

Do not consider the time that the person spends on other "activities along the way", whether they are activities carried out by the person him/herself or the person transporting or accompanying him/her, such as practicing a sport, going for a drink, or eating something. Therefore, find out how long it would take the person to go directly to his/her school.

If the person does not commute directly from the housing unit to school, but from work or another location, ask how long it would take to commute from the housing unit.

The commuting time to school question is presented in the census manager as follows:
