Dear DHS users,

I still have one question. I think this one has not been asked anywhere:

In average, how many households were there in each urban enumeration area (EA) and in each rural EA in 1998 Côte d'Ivoire DHS?

Thank you.

Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

Here's how to do this in Stata:

* open the PR file
use ...CIPR3AFL.dta, clear

set more off

* reduce to one record per household
keep if hvidx==1

gen n=1

* add up the number of households in each cluster
collapse (sum) n, by(hv001)

summarize 
tab n

Here's the result. There were 140 clusters. The number of households per cluster ranged from 7 to 41, was 9 or 10 in a third of the clusters, and the mean was 15.2 households per cluster.

If you replace the last two Stata lines with

collapse (sum) n, by(hv001 hv025)
tab hv025, summarize(n)

Then you get the following results separately by urban and rural areas.

    type of |
   place of |         Summary of (sum) n
  residence |        Mean   Std. Dev.       Freq.

      urban |       14.21   6.0607947         100
      rural |      17.525    8.875167          40
------------+------------------------------------
      Total |   15.157143   7.1078753         140
