Hello,

I cannot find the number of strata used in the BD DHS 1999/2000 and 2004. I checked the final reports and they only provide the number of Enumeration Areas (341 and 361, respectively). The reports just mention choosing EAs from the list of EAs in the 1991 or 2001 census, respectively, but it is unclear how the two-stage selection was done.

When I tabulate the stratum variables (hv022 or v022, labeled "sample stratum number"), I get 168 for the 1999/2000 data and 177 for the 2004 data. In contrast, the 2007 and 2011 BD DHS have 22 and 20 strata, respectively.

I am trying to merge data from four BD DHS surveys and need to make sure that I get the survey design, weights, etc. correct.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Anna
