[in04] The six largest metropolitan areas were defined by data provider as any district included in the census definition of “urban conglomerates” for each of these six areas. These districts often include both urban and rural areas; all parts are included in the area_c categories. Delhi is a slight exception to this definition. The Census of India does not allow urban conglomerates to cross state boundaries, although parts of U.P. and Haryana are clearly part of the larger Delhi metropolitan area. To correct for this, Gurgaon district in Haryana and Ghaziabad and Gautam Buddha Nagar districts in U.P. are included as part of the Delhi metropolitan area. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DWELLING CHARACTERISTICS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ own owned/rented housing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- N code label 36993 100 owned 3829 210 rented 732 . dweltyp type of dwelling -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- N code label 7542 110 detached house 22149 120 non-detached house 1281 210 apartment/flat 3634 220 other multi-unit 2514 300 other type of dwelling 3926 320 informal dwelling 508 .
