CENSE

These statistics have a specific section with all the information available: Building Census (CENSE).

Methodological note

The population scope in the 2011 Building Census consists of all buildings in the territory (regardless of their principal use) that are fully constructed and contain some type of dwelling, with the listing of properties that are located there. That is, it does not include buildings that contain no dwellings. This is the main difference between previous censuses. The 2011 Building Census is limited to buildings that contain some type of dwelling, and does not provide information on other buildings. Previous censuses excluded buildings used for strictly agricultural or livestock purposes. This Census also excludes buildings, regardless of use, that contain no dwellings whatsoever.

There was no registry of buildings that, having been totally or partially demolished, were being rebuilt and had no roof as of the census date.

Therefore, the following are also excluded:

  • Buildings being demolished, or considered dilapidated when vacated.
  • Constructions located in squares, on the pavement or in recreational areas intended for the sale of beverages, tobacco, newspapers, etc.
  • Buildings strictly intended for agricultural production and, therefore, not simultaneously being used as a family or group dwelling, or for activities other than agricultural production.
Building

Permanent, separate and independent construction designed to be used as a dwelling or for agricultural or industrial purposes, providing services, or, in general, to carry out any type of activity (administrative, commercial, industrial, cultural...).

Property

Operative unit corresponding to a dwelling or locale, depending on its use. All properties have a combination of different numbers corresponding to its floor and door.
