Description

Definition

OWNSPLOT indicates whether the household owns or rents the land on which their dwelling is located.

The information in OWNSPLOT 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 (V135) variable (with visitors coded "2").
