Definition
GEO_ RW1992_2005 indicates the region of Rwanda where the respondent was interviewed. The variable is integrated to yield units with consistent boundaries across samples.
Labels identify the modern geographic units (groups of prefectures) contained in each integrated region. Each sample also has its own non-integrated geography variable. The 2000 and 2005 Rwanda samples have greater geographic detail available in their sample-specific variables. An additional geographic variable, GEO_RW2005_2014, includes the 2005, 2010 and 2014 Rwanda samples and contains different geographic units (provinces).
