Description

Definition

WSTORHOW reports how the household stores drinking water for later use.

The information in WSTORHOW 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").
