Description

Definition

DRAINPROBCOST indicates whether the household's dwelling has a problem with toilet drainage in terms of the cost of evacuation.

The information in DRAINPROBCOST is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
