Interviewer instructions
This information gives a measure of crowdedness in the dwelling, as well as reflecting the socioeconomic condition of the household. A room in this case refers to a special area with a permanent partition which is used for sleeping. It is not necessarily the number of rooms in the household which are called "bedrooms", but rather how many rooms get used for sleeping on a regular basis. Exclude rooms which are only used for sleeping for visitors to the household, but include those rooms which may not be regular "bedrooms" but may be regularly used by one or more of the household members for sleeping.
Enter the number of rooms in this household that are used for sleeping. If there is a response for this question skip to HC3.
