Description

Definition
OTHERTRANS indicates whether any member of the household owns some other mode of transport. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific transportation vehicles or methods included in a particular survey.

The information in OTHERTRANS 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.
