Following is a response from DHS staff member Tom Pullum:

To get this table, use the PR file. The outcome variable is hv205. You must use weights, hv005. For households, restrict to one record per household, either with hv101=1 or hvidx=1. For individuals, get de jure residents with hv102. The following Stata lines will match the percentages and frequencies in table 2.3.1.

use "...NGPR7BFL.DTA", clear

* For households, restrict to household head
tab hv205 if hv101==1 [iweight=hv005/1000000]

* For individuals, restrict to de jure
tab hv205 if hv102==1 [iweight=hv005/1000000]
