Description

Definition
RESIDENTMN (MV135) indicates whether the man, in a men's sample, was a usual resident of the household or was just visiting there. As defined by the RESIDENTMN variable, a visitor could potentially reside in the city, town, or village where the interview took place but would have answered "No" to the question, "Does (NAME) usually live here [in this dwelling unit]?" on the household questionnaire.
