Description

CHLPG indicates whether the household uses liquid petroleum gas/gas for cooking and heating.

The information in CHLPG is taken from the household record and applies to household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis and using the RESIDENT variable when women, children, and births are the unit of analysis.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, CHLPG is largely comparable across samples.
