There were a number of changes in content over 1950, notably broader coverage of employment and education, and the addition of questions on commuting patterns and mobility. Questions P3-P7 were asked for all persons, but the other items (P8 ff.) were collected on a 25-percent basis. In 1960, the housing unit or the group quarters (the dwelling or nondwelling units in 1950) was the sampling unit, so that everyone living in that unit fell in the sample. There were special procedures for sampling persons in institutions and similar facilities, however. A unit with five or more lodgers or six unrelated individuals (one of whom was designated as head) was classified as “group quarters." The month of birth (P6) was collected for everyone, but only the quarter was transcribed to the official schedule. The instructions for completing P5 (race or color) by observation directed that Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, or other persons of Latin descent would be classified as "White" unless they were definitely Negro, Indian, or some other race. Southern European and Near Eastern nationalities also were to be considered White. Asian Indians were to be classified as "Other," and “Hindu” written in. The husband of a married couple was always to be listed as the head of the household if he was present. 6. County ANO POPULATION INQUIRIES-Continued 30.
