This is a derived variable indicating the age of the household member. Age of the household member was derived from question 1.4 of the questionnare. This question was asked for each member of the household. The instruction was to write the age in completed years to the nearest whole numbers and not in words. Thus, if a person was two years and six months, the instruction was to write the two completed years. For children aged less than a year, the instruction was to write 000.
