Good morning, I am currently working on the Colombia 2010 DHS dataset
I am interested to aggregate some variables by municipality
I analyzed the distribution of the variable shmunip and I found out that
20,804 cases are characterized by a value equal to 1.
the cross-tabulation with region (v024) or dept (shdepto)
and I observed a one to many relation,
whereas I found a one-to-one match when focusing
on region & departments.
I was expecting a sort of multilevel arrangement
region > dept > municipality

Could somebody please explain me in some details
how shuold I interpret these findings or where I am incorrectly
interpreting the meaning of the variables?
Thank you very much for your help
