Description

HUSB5INHOME indicates whether the female respondent's fifth husband lived with her after marriage. This variable combines both women who are currently married to their fifth husband and women who are not currently married to their fifth husband. For women who are currently married to their fifth husband, this variable indicates whether the woman's husband is currently living with her. For women who are not currently married to their fifth husband, this variable indicates whether the woman's husband always lived with her after marriage.
