Characteristics of the dwelling unit

Question 39 - Living arrangements

You are required to indicate the conditions under which the respondent enters his/her living quarters.
[1] Either by a separate entrance.
[2] Through a common landing or passage way.
[3] Or through someone else's living quarters.

This question should serve as a check to determine and satisfy the conditions for identifying a dwelling unit which are separateness and independence of the residential accommodation. It will be recalled that a dwelling unit is essentially residential accommodation, privately occupied, in which the persons who live there can enter and leave their accommodation without passing through someone else's accommodation.
