Dwelling Frame Count for Census 2011: Stats SA<br />

Dwelling frame<br />

overview<br />

• The Dwelling Frame is a register of the spatial location of dwelling units and other<br />

structures. It is used to demarcate Enumeration Areas (EAs) for the 2011 Census<br />

• An EA is the smallest piece of land into which the country is divided for enumeration, of a<br />

size suitable for one fieldworker in an allocated period of time<br />

• EAs typically contain between 100 and 250 households. The acceptable range in dwelling<br />

unit count per <strong>Informal</strong> Residential EA is 151-185 (Ideal: 168) with no geographic size<br />

constraint<br />

• The Dwelling Frame has been collated since 2005 and is around 70% complete<br />

Data coverage<br />

• There are 71 sub-places in <strong>Mpumalanga</strong> with at least one EA classified as “<strong>Informal</strong><br />

Residential”, totalling 277 EAs and covering a total area of 81.21 square kilometres<br />

• There are Dwelling Frame estimates for 42 (59%) of these “<strong>Informal</strong> Residential” EAs,<br />

totalling 13,840 Dwelling Frames<br />

Comments<br />

• A dwelling frame is not the same as a dwelling or a household<br />

• The <strong>data</strong>set contains coordinates for all sub-places where there is at least one informal<br />

residential EA
