Description

Definition
MIG1ALT_5_CL indicates the province within Chile in which the person lived five years prior to the census. The 1970 sample is coded into the pre-1974 geographic system of provinces.

See MIG1_5_CL for a comparable variable using the modern province classification for the 1982-2002 samples. See also MIG1ALT_P_CL for a similar variable for 1960 on province of previous residence using the pre-1974 geographic classification.
