Codes
HHNUMMN is a 4-digit variable.
Description
HHNUMMN (MV002) is the number identifying the household in which the male respondent was interviewed, within each men's sample.
To identify unique households in most samples, researchers must use HHNUMMN with CLUSTERNOMN (MV001).
For most samples, HHNUMMN (MV002) and CLUSTERNOMN (MV001) can be used to merge IPUMS-DHS data from the men's file to DHS Household Recode files, to incorporate household variables not yet available in the IPUMS-DHS. However, in some household files, HHNUM (V002) and CLUSTERNO (V001) do not uniquely identify households in the DHS Household Recode file.
For information about the IPUMS-DHS samples where HHNUM and CLUSTERNO are not sufficient to uniquely identify households, and for guidance on what further steps to take for linking files in such cases, please consult the User Note on Linking.
Comparability
In some samples, HHNUMMN (MV002) may be the combination of dwelling number and household number within dwelling. In these cases, the original variables are included in the DHS files as country-specific variables.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HHNUMMN (MV002) is a standard recode variable for men for DHS Phase 3 forward.
