Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In some surveys, there is no indication whether the bathroom and the kitchen are counted in the number of rooms or not. We assume they are excluded.

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
Some inconsistencies were detected between number of rooms in the dwelling and its type, however the most appropriate method to deal with these cases was left to the users' judgement.
