Description

Definition

HOMETENURE reports the ownership of the dwelling in which the household lives.

The information in HOMETENURE 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").
