Rwanda 2000 only 13 unique women's weights (v005) [message #12204]

Dear forum,

I am using the children's recode of the Rwanda 2000 survey for some analysis. The v005 variable for the women's sample weight has only 13 unique values. This matches the number of regions in the survey. I am baffled as to how this can be the individual weight. Should I multiply this by the household weight (after dividing both by 1,000,000) to get the correct individual woman's sample weight?

Many thanks!
