Dear Yushu,

As far as I can tell the surveys we currently have or will have on our website with slum information are:
India NFHS-2 1998-99
India NFHS-3 2005-06
India NFHS-4 2014-15 (underway and not yet on the website)
Bangladesh DHS 2007
Egypt Interim DHS 2003

Appendix F India 1998-99
For Maharashtra, on the coversheet of Household Questionnaire, two additional identifiers were added for use in Mumbai only: whether the area is a slum area and whether the household is a slum household.

In India NFHS-2, there were separate estimates for Mumbai slums in 1998-99 and slums in eight cities (Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Indore, Kolkata, Meerut, Mumbai, and Nagpur). There will be slum estimates for the same eight cities in NFHS-4 (2014-15).

Egypt DHS Interim 2003
Cover has box Non Slum/Slum

There was a Nairobi Cross-Sectional Slum Survey in 2000, but it was not part of the DHS. The Behavioural Surveillance Survey or the DHS-type survey was conducted in Nairobi slum areas by the African Population and Health Research Centre.
Similarly, in Ghana there was a survey of slums in the Accra Urban Agglomeration Area,but again it was not part of the DHS.

Hope this helps.
If I run across any others, I will post again.
Thank you!
