Rooms used for business

Term · Economic statistics · MLC-T-ECS-001704

In the American Housing Survey, a room used for business is set up for use as an office or business for a business owner, contract worker, self-employed person, commercial use (such as daycare or catering), or regular job. The question asked if rooms were exclusively used for business space. Follow-up questions asked if there were direct access to the outside without going through any other room and whether the space was used both as business space and for personal use.
