Part 3: Information about housing
The DTV collects information about the housing situation of the household. Do not collect housing information for specific demographics.
Question 59: Who owns the house/apartment that your household is living in?
- Household's own house: The house/apartment owned by the household, acquired through self-built, purchased, or given/gifted, and is currently being used by the household as their residence.
[p.80]- House rented from the State: The house/apartment that the household signs a lease from the State.
- House rented from individuals/private entity: The house/apartment that the household signs a lease with a private party to live in and is actually currently living in that house.
- Tenement: The house/apartment that the household rents from organizations, businesses, cooperatives, production groups, ...
- Other forms of ownership or unknown ownership: The house/apartment is not in one of the listed groups, such as: houses/apartments encroached upon the land of the State, organizations, or private individuals; the house/apartment in a dispute over ownership and has not been clearly adjudicated; house/apartment that the household rents from religious organizations.
For example: A tenement room was allotted to Mr. A's family to use. After a period of usage, Mr. A's family leased it to Mr. B's family. In this case, the DTV identifies Question 59 for Mr. B's family as "House rented from individuals/private entity".
