From what I gather from looking at censuses from Copenhagen and Aarhus, respectively, the form was only used in Copenhagen. It was given to the owner of a block of flats to complete, giving summarised details about the number of flats, the number of rooms per flat, the size in m2 per flat, the rent paid per flat and, in some censuses, more personal details about the tennants, (incl. e.g. how many rooms were allocated to servants!). The idea was for the authorities to gain an overview of the distribution of housing/living conditions throughout the capital
