This section, comprising eight questions - numbered 36 to 43 inclusive - must be marked on the questionnaire for the head of the household only.

75. Question 42 - Number of rooms

You are required to mark the number of rooms occupied by the household for living purposes. Included as rooms - living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, sewing rooms, libraries, servant rooms - attached or detached - from the main building. Do not count as rooms - bathrooms, toilets, kitchens, pantries, galleries and porches. If you find a room with a portion contained off or with a temporary partition, the whole area must be counted as one room. If however, there is a permanent partition dividing the floor area, you must count this as two rooms. Curtains or blinds do not separate rooms, Walls and permanent partitions do.

In all cases where the household occupies 7 or more rooms mark the space 7 and over.
