Hi there,

I have just seen this post and have come across the same problem with DRC 2007. However, the report definitely says that there were 34 sampling strata created using three strata (statutory city, city, rural area) for 10 of the 11 provinces (except Kinshasa). I can't find any variable that relates to these three strata, and even if there was, that would create 31 strata not 34! Using v024 and v025 gives 21 strata. I am now quite confused about how this stratification was done. Can you give any more clarification on this?

I'm having a similar problem with Uganda 2011. There is no data for sample strata in either v022 or v023. The report states that a stratified design was used, but does not explicitly say what the strata are. I assumed v024 and v025 (region and urban/rural area of residence), but just wanted to verify, as Uganda 2006 DHS seems to use region plus refugee camps, not urban/rural.

Thanks,

Sonia
