    Abstract
    Bounded Structures are physical units that can be directly observed in the field (even in the absence of any informant). They are either a single building, or a clustered group of buildings, owned by a single owner and located on an identifiable plot of land (e.g. a designated stand in urban areas, or a fenced estate in rural areas). They can be represented by a point in a Geographical Information System. Most Bounded Structures are Homesteads i.e. residential, but others can be schools, clinics, shops, churches etc Another dataset - BSTypeEpisodes details these characteristics and any changes in them. Bounded Structures can also be under construction, usable or broken down. This characteristic is detailed in dataset BSStateEpisodes. Latitude and Longitude is available for every Bounded Structure, but is not included in this dataset Bounded Structures have both an internal identifier - BSIntId - used in the database and dataset, and also a BSID which is used in the field, on printed questionnaires, and all operational activities. When first registered the four-page BSR form shown below is administered, while the BSU form, also shown, is administered to every Bounded Structure in Every DS Round.
