A response from sampling expert, Dr. Ruilin Ren,
Quote:

The DHS surveys never define the urban/rural, it always follows the national definition which was defined by the population census. That is why we never address the urban/rural definition in the final report.
Thanks
Ruilin



If you check the Citation page which is usually located behind the Title page in the final reports, you will see contact information for the implementing agencies. Usually there's an email and phone number. They may be able to provide more information.
Thank you!
