Talk:2011 South African census

Geo-referenced Dwelling
I believe the geo-referenced dwelling used 2009 data provided by the municipalities and is not comprehensive due to lack of funding. I do not yet have a public reference. -- Firefishy (talk) 13:06, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Interview basis
Is the data in the census the best estimates or is it what people report during the interview ? I can think of a few places where discrepancies occur: -- Nic Roets (talk) 05:13, 29 January 2013 (UTC) (edited by Nic Roets (talk) 11:06, 29 January 2013 (UTC))
 * 1) People (immigrants) say they were born in South Africa when they are fearing xenophobia.
 * 2) People say they are richer than what they really are. My guess is that the post enumeration survey adjusted for this...


 * If they don't fear xenophobia why would they falsely claim to be born in SA? Roger (talk) 09:41, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying. Lets hope these questions can be answered when the full report is published. Roger (talk) 11:19, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
