Hello there,
As far as I understood, most of the DHS data covers around 1/4 of the households within a cluster (e.g., 25 out of 100 households in a cluster). However, I require a dataset that covers a higher proportion of households in a cluster (i.e., more than 1/4). I was wondering whether you know any dataset that fits to this description.
Furthermore, I realized that the continuous Peru datasets also use the same clusters in the latter waves. So, I was also wondering whether the same households are chosen in the latter waves or new households are interviewed in the latter waves. In other words, if I merge 4 continuous datasets from Peru, would I be able to include more households within a cluster in my final sample? Thanks in advance for your help!
