Questions 18-20

Questions 18, 19 and 20 are to be asked of households, occupying Living Quarters of Codes 1 to 17 only. The Living Quarters Codes are obtained from the Housing Census and shown in the House-listing Book (Stage 1) column 2.

Question 18
Ask the question as given: If the respondent says "yes" to Question 18a, that is if the household is a tenant household paying rent for accommodation, you are to mark "yes" and skip to Question 19. You are to ask Question 18b only if they say "no" to Question 18a.

In Question 18b; mark "yes" if the housing unit belongs to the household you are interviewing. This includes households who are currently paying installments for purchasing the unit. If there are other arrangements for example free housing, then mark "no".
