SAMPLE DESIGN: 1/20 sample: 1/5 sample selected from 1/4 sample. All individuals in private households from 1/4 sample from a district selected with probability 1/5. Other populations: systematic selection of individuals with probability 1/5. 1/4 sample: corresponds to a cluster sample of districts stratified by locality and size of household. All individuals within households constitute the 1/4 sample. For other populations, selection is based on individuals stratified by locality and type of group quarters.

SAMPLE SIZE (person records): 2934758.

SAMPLE DESIGN: 1/20 sample: A 1/5 systematic sample selected from 1/4 sample. 1/4 sample: a systematic sample of every 4th dwelling (or individual from institutional households). Dwellings, either for households/quasi-households or vacant dwellings, are sorted by locality and household size (if for households/quasi-households), before sampling. Individuals from communities/quasi-communities are sorted by locality, type of community and date of birth before sampling. All individuals within households constitute the 1/4 sample.

Form 1A for dwelling consists of (1) dwelling characteristics, (2) List A. permanent occupants of the dwelling, (3) List B. household members who do not live in the dwelling of enumeration, and (4) building characteristics; Form 2B. Individual form.

Analysis unit

Persons, households, and dwellings Combines data from 2009-2013; includes overseas departments

UNITS IDENTIFIED: - Dwellings: yes - Vacant Units: no - Households: yes - Individuals: yes - Group quarters: yes

UNIT DESCRIPTIONS: - Dwellings: A structure that is separate, completely enclosed by walls and partitions, without connecting with another unit unless this is by means of the shared parts of the building (corridor, staircase, lobby, etc.), and self-contained, with an entrance from which there is direct access to the outside or to the shared parts of the building, without having to go through another unit. - Households: All persons, not necessarily related, sharing the same main residence. A household can also be made up of a single person. Persons living in mobile dwellings, sailors, homeless persons, and persons living in collective dwellings are considered to be living outside households. - Group quarters: A community is a group of residential premises falling under the same managing authority and whose residents share a common mode of living. The community population includes those people who live in the community, with the exception of those who live in company accommodation. Community categories are: medium- or long-stay services of public or private health establishments; medium- and long-stay social establishments; retirement home and similar social residences; religious communities; military barracks, quarters, bases, or camps; student housing, including military teaching establishments; prisons; short-term social establishments, and other similar communities.

Two separate forms, Feuille de logement and Bulletin individuel, were used to collect information on dwellings and individuals. Households in overseas departments and territories were enumerated using a slightly modified form.
