Modelling Census Under-Enumeration - A Logistic Regression Perspective

The Scottish 2001 Census - Occupancy Rating

Figure 1.2.11 (19 Kb PDF file) provides figures on occupancy rating.

Occupancy rating is a measure of under-occupancy and overcrowding. A positive measure refers to the number of rooms in addition to the minimum requirements. A negative measure refers to the number of rooms short of the minimum, and gives some indication of over-crowding. It is expected that in wards with a large number of overcrowded households, there is a greater likelihood of people being missed.
