Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
In order to find this variable, I would open the PR file (or any other file) in Stata and enter "lookfor district". Sometimes other keywords help, such as "place", "province", "county", etc. You can do that yourself. I think every statistical package has a similar search command.
Sometimes the second administrative level is NOT in the data files, or is included but without names (without a variable label). When the names are missing from the data files, we generally do not have them in any form.
