{{languages|Residence and census}}
RESI {RESIDENCE} The act of dwelling at an address for a period of time.
CENS {CENSUS} The event of the periodic count of the population for a designated locality, such as a national orstate Census. TYPE {TYPE} A further qualification to the meaning of the associated superior tag. The value does not have anycomputer processing reliability. It is more in the form of a short one or two word note that should be displayed any time the associated data is displayed.
== Place and Address ==
=== Multiples places ===
There is a lot of are many solutions :
* GEDCOM 5.5 allows a sub-division on place title separated by commas.
But using a specific address as place title (or place attribute) might generate a lot of place objects on the same city or same district (no shared place object).
* Gramps provides an Address tab on person editor.
But maybe an other GEDCOM issue, which could hide some useful informations information for genealogical searchs searches!* The most effective emplacement for setting address seems to be the event editor !!! Event objects are used on reports and displayed on views/tabs/dialogs.(see [[Why residence event and not Address%3F]])
Most places deal with events (see Place Report)
=== How or where could we set address on event ? ===
PersonalyPersonally, I find the '''event description''' a good choice :
{|{{prettytable}}
|}
I agree, On description we could use "(event type) of person's name" on both event type (residence and census), maybe with the "header of family" as person's name on census event.
=== To share data ===
* with Gramps XML format (from Gramps to Gramps), : there is no problem, descriptions on event are safe.* but Gedcom: if the recipient's program ignores TYPE attribut (GEDCOM), then he could lose descriptions on event ...
