Gyeonggi Province to Conduct '2025 Population and Housing Census' Until November 18

Gyeonggi Province will conduct the 'Population and Housing Census' from October 22 to November 18.

The Population and Housing Census is a large-scale statistical survey aimed at identifying the size and characteristics of all people, households, and housing. The National Data Office (formerly Statistics Korea) and local governments work together to conduct on-site surveys every five years.

The survey consists of 55 questions, including name, nationality, childcare, and commuting or attending school. Of these, 42 questions will be covered through field surveys, while 13 will be replaced by administrative data. This year, new questions have been added regarding family caregiving time, marriage plans and intentions, and languages used within the household.

The survey will cover approximately 1.21 million sample households, which account for 20% of households in the province, as well as all dormitories and social facilities. Households selected for the survey will receive a survey notice in advance, which includes a participation number and a QR code, allowing them to participate easily from October 22 via the internet (mobile or PC) or by phone, without the need for a surveyor to visit.

If it is difficult to participate via mobile or other means, from November 1 to 18, a surveyor wearing an official ID will visit the selected households to conduct in-person interviews.

All survey information will be strictly protected in accordance with Article 33 of the Statistics Act. The results will serve as foundational data for the development of major policies related to social and housing welfare, social diversity, population mobility, and responses to low birth rates.

Jung Kyungim, Director of Population Policy for Gyeonggi Province, stated, "When a surveyor visits your household, please first check the official ID issued by your city, county, or district and the National Data Office, and then participate in the survey. As this is an important foundational survey for national statistics, we kindly ask for the active participation of all residents."
