Definition
GEO_TZ2015 (V101_TZ2015) reports the region of Tanzania where the respondent was interviewed. DHS units in the 2015 Tanzania survey are equivalent to regions.
Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. The integrated variables GEO_TZ1991_2015 and GEO_TZ1996_2015 provide spatially consistent units for Tanzania over time.
