Abstract
---------------------------
The 1970 South African Population Census collected data on dwellings and individuals' demographic, migration, family and employment details.
Geographic coverage
---------------------------
National coverage of the so-called white areas of South Africa, i.e. the areas in the former four provinces of the Cape, the Orange Free State, Transvaal, and Natal, and the so-called National States of Ciskei, KwaZulu, Gazankulu, Lebowa, Qwaqwa, Kangwane, Kwandebele, Transkei and Bophuthatswana.
Analysis unit
---------------------------
The units of analysis for the South African Census 1970 were households and individuals
Universe
---------------------------
The South African population census of 1970 covered all de jure household members (usual residents) of South Africa and the "national states".
The Census was enumerated on a de facto basis, that is, according to the place where persons were located during the census. All persons who were present on Republic of South African territory during census night were enumerated and included in the data. Visitors from abroad who were present in the RSA on holiday or business on the night of the census, as well as foreigners (and their families) who were studying or economically active, were not enumerated and included in the figures. Likewise, members of the Diplomatic and Consular Corps of foreign countries were not included. However, the South African personnel linked to the foreign missions including domestic workers were enumerated. Crews and passengers of ships were also not enumerated, unless they were normally resident in the Republic of South Africa. Residents of the RSA who were absent from the night were as far as possible enumerated on their return and included in the region where they normally resided. Personnel of the South African Government stationed abroad and their families were, however enumerated. Such persons were included in the Transvaal (Pretoria).
Kind of data
---------------------------
Census/enumeration data [cen]
Sampling procedure
---------------------------
The 1970 Census was a full count for Whites, Coloureds and Asians, and a 5% sample for Blacks (Africans)
Sampling deviation
---------------------------
The country was divided into 400 census districts for the 1970 Census. In most cases the boundaries of the census districts corresponded with those of the magisterial districts. However, in some cases the boundaries did not correspond, particularly in the areas in and around the "National States". This was to facilitate the administration of the census and to make it easier to exclude figures of the "National states" from provincial totals.
Mode of data collection
---------------------------
Face-to-face [f2f]

摘要
---------------------------
1970年南非人口普查收集了关于住宅及个人的人口统计、迁移、家庭和就业等方面的数据。
地理覆盖范围
---------------------------
涵盖南非所谓的白人地区,即前开普省、奥兰治自由州、德兰士瓦省和纳塔尔省以及所谓的国家州,包括基西基、夸祖鲁、加赞库卢、莱博瓦、夸夸瓦、坎格瓦内、坎德贝勒、特兰斯凯和博普塔茨瓦纳。
分析单元
---------------------------
1970年南非人口普查的分析单元为家庭和个人。
总体
---------------------------
1970年南非人口普查覆盖了南非所有法定住户成员(常住居民)以及所谓的国家州居民。
普查以事实为基础进行,即根据普查当晚个人所在地点进行。所有在南非共和国领土上普查当晚在场的人员均被普查并纳入数据中。在普查当晚来南非度假或从事商务活动的国外访客,以及在该国学习或经济活跃的外国人(及其家庭)未进行普查,也未计入数据。同样,外国大使馆和领事馆的外交和领事官员也不包括在内。然而,与外国使团相关联的南非人员和他们的家庭成员(包括家务工人)被普查。船舶的船员和乘客也不进行普查,除非他们通常居住在南非共和国。缺席普查之夜的RSA居民尽可能在返回时进行普查,并包括在他们通常居住的地区。在国外的南非政府人员及其家属被普查。此类人员被包括在德兰士瓦省(比勒陀利亚)。
数据类型
---------------------------
普查/统计数据 [cen]
抽样程序
---------------------------
1970年普查对白人、有色人和亚洲人进行了全面计数,对黑人(非洲人)进行了5%的抽样。
抽样偏差
---------------------------
国家被划分为400个普查区以进行1970年普查。在大多数情况下,普查区的边界与行政区的边界相对应。然而,在某些情况下,边界并不一致,尤其是在所谓的国家州的地区。这是为了便利普查的管理并便于从省的总数中排除“国家州”的数据。
