Mikrocensus 1993, 3. quarter: Questions on Housing

In 1993 a new quarterly survey aside from the extended housing survey in March (Mikrozensus MZ9301) which included questions on the “energy consumption of the households”, poses questions on housing. The emphasis is on house hunting and change of habitation. The first part of the survey contains questions which serve the better representation of the costs of the apartment such as their connection with the duration of the rent and the influence of housing subsidy, as well as questions on fixed-term tenancy agreements. Mobility and change of residence to other residential areas had before been the topic of the Mikrozensus survey from 1988 (Mikrozensus MZ8802). Change of residence within and over the border of the residential areas an house hunting had been the topic of the Mikrozensus survey in 1971 (Mikrozensus MZ7101). Since then the existing lack of information as well as the increasing demand for apartments over the last years as a consequence of certain factors such as immigration, the need for better apartments, the need for apartments after a divorce, have led to a program on house hunting in September 1993.

1993年，除3月开展的拓展型住房调查（微普查（Mikrozensus）MZ9301，该调查包含家庭能源消费相关问题）之外，另有一项新增季度调研聚焦住房议题，核心内容为住房搜寻与居住变更。该调研的第一部分设置了多项问题，用于更精准地刻画住房成本构成——例如租金租期与住房补贴的关联影响，同时涵盖定期租赁协议相关调研内容。
此前，1988年的微普查MZ8802已将跨居住区流动与迁居作为调研主题；1971年的微普查MZ7101则围绕区内及跨区居住变更、住房搜寻展开相关调研。
自上述早期调研以来，受移民、改善居住条件需求、离婚后住房需求等多重因素影响，住房相关信息缺口始终存在，且近年住房需求持续攀升，这一背景推动相关部门于1993年9月推出了住房搜寻专项调研项目。
