GLOSSARY
Definitions used by Statistics SA (2003:vii)):
Disability
A physical or mental handicap which has lasted for 6 months or more, or is expected to last at least 6 months, which prevents the person from carrying
out daily activities independently or from participating fully in educational, economic or social activities.
Economically Active person
A person aged 15 years or more who is either employed or unemployed but who is looking for work. In other words someone who is working or who
wants to work and is seeking work is defined as economically active.
Household
A household is a group of persons who live together, and provide themselves jointly with food and/or other essential for living, or a single person who
lives alone.
Population Group
Statistics SA continues to classify people by population group in order to monitor progress in moving away from the apartheid-based discrimination of
the past. However membership of a population group is now based on self-perception and self-classification, not on a legal definition. Five options
were provided on the questionnaire, Black African, Coloured, Indians or Asian, White and Other. Responses in the category “other” were very few and
were therefore imputed to one of the other categories.
Unemployed Person
An unemployed person is defined as an economically active person who
-did not work during the seven days prior to census night
-wanted to work and was available to start work within a week of census night, and
- had taken active steps to look for work or to start some form of self-employment in the four weeks prior to census night.
Unemployment Rate
The number of unemployed persons as a percentage of the economically active.
INTRODUCTION
„
This report describes the main demographic and socio-economic
characteristics of the people living in Khayelitsha.
„
The 2001 Census data, which was released by Statistics South
Africa (Statistics SA) in July 2003, is used as the key data source.
The census data is the outcome of the national census conducted in
October 2001 as well as a post-enumeration survey conducted in
November 2001 to estimate the number of persons who were
missed in the census. The census undercount was found to have
been 17%. Statistics SA adjusted the enumerated census data to
compensate for the undercount.

Population Size
The 2001 Census recorded the size of the Khayelitsha population at
329 002 people living in 85614 households. This compares to the 1996 figure of
249 540 implying a growth rate of 5.3 % per annum between 1996 and 2001.

According to the Statistics Council Census sub-committee, preliminary independent
demographic analyses of the census results suggest that the final census figures
probably reflect:
•an underestimate of children under the age of five
•an overestimate of children aged between 10 and 19
•an underestimate of men relative to women
•an underestimate of the white population
(Statistics SA, 2003)

of Households earning below the minimum level for household subsistence.
– % of adults (20) with highest educational level less than matric.
This indicator represents the number of adults (20+) with less than a matric

seeking work as a percentage of all adults available for work. This excludes those
not seeking work, such as homemakers, students and retired people.
– % of the labour force employed in elementary/unskilled occupations

elementary/unskilled occupations as a percentage of all employed.
