F. Information about the private home
Once the dwelling part is finished, you will ask questions referring to the Census home.

Remember that if in a dwelling inhabited by more than one private home you should fill out as many documents as there are homes.

Write in each one of the documents the information about each of the homes. You should not repeat information in Section "E. Information about the private dwelling".

Cancel this section upon enumerating the second and following homes that share this dwelling.


6. Tenancy of the home

Some explanations:

  • Sharecropper or medianero: It is the situation of a home that inhabits a dwelling as part of a contract or agreement (written or by word), by which it occupies or uses a good or exploitation, for half of the goods produced, by said good or exploitation.
  • Usufructuary: It is the situation of a home that occupies a dwelling, with authorization of the owner, without paying rent.
  • De facto occupant: It is the situation of a home that occupies a dwelling or abandoned piece of land, without the authorization of the owner of the property.


160. The other situations: "Owned", "Rented" or "Subleased", do not need explanations. Your informant will give you the information directly.
