Description

WSTORCONMOUTH reports the type of opening found on the containers in which the household stores drinking water. The responses come from the interviewer's observation rather than from questioning household residents.

The information in WSTORCONMOUTH is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
