Description

Definition
WTRSHARENUM reports the number of other households that share the household's source of drinking water. If the household gets its drinking water from a source in its dwelling or plot or otherwise does not share its water source, WTRSHARENUM has a value of 0. A value of 1 indicates that one other household (or 2 households in total) use the source of drinking water.

The related variable WTRSHARE indicates whether the household shares its source of drinking (located away from the dwelling or plot) with other households.

The information in WTRSHARENUM is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
