Definition
GEO_MA1987 (V101_ MA1987) indicates the region of Morocco where the respondent was interviewed. DHS units in the 1987 Morocco survey are equivalent to groups of regions.
Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. There is an integrated variable, GEO_MA1987_2003, that provides spatially consistent units over time.
