Duke2015 - I posted about this same issue yesterday and the information may help you. I don't think that using residence (urban/rural - v025) is appropriate for stratification for the 2011 Uganda DHS, as you suggest. This survey drew a random sample of clusters from the 2010 Uganda National Health Survey, which was stratified according to region only.

For the time being, I am using region (v024) as the strata for Uganda 2011. I'm still not sure this is the correct approach. Is a random sample of clusters of a stratified sample also stratified in the same way as the original sample?

Here is my post from yesterday:
