Description

Definition
TIMETOTOILET reports the number of minutes required to travel to a toilet facility used by the household, which is located outside the dwelling or plot.

The information in TIMETOTOILET 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.
