Accommodation was very crowded and many households had less than one square metre per person in their rooms. The majority of households shared a bathroom and toilet. Bathrooms had a soakaway for wastewater disposal. About 88% of toilets had a bucket-latrine and about 12% had a pit latrine. The number of latrines was inadequate and open defecation was common. About half the residents did not use a kitchen but cooked in corridors. 3, record 2, English, - soil%2Dtub
