living quarters (LQ)
Living quarters have been defined for census purposes as places of abode which are structurally separate and independent. The terms, 'separate' and 'independent' mean the following:
• Separate
A structure is considered separate if it is surrounded by walls, fence, etc. and is covered by a roof.
• Independent
A structure is said to be independent if it has direct access via a public staircase, communal passageway or landing (that is, occupants can come in or go out of their living quarters without passing through someone else's premises). However, if the structure was not built for living but was used for that purpose at the time of the census, it is regarded as a living quarters.
There are two categories of living quarters, that is housing unit and collective living quarters.
• The housing units are classified into detached, semi-detached, terrace/link, cluster, townhouse, shop house/office, flat, apartment, condominium, long house (Sabah and Sarawak only), improvised/temporary hut and room (with direct access from outside).
• The collective living quarters are meant for living by a large group of individuals and usually have some common facilities such as kitchen, toilet, bathroom, lounge and bedrooms. Examples of collective living quarters are hotel, hospital, hostel, social welfare homes, prison and temporary quarters for workers.
