Series Information
The first Household Socio-Economic Survey was conducted by the National Statistical Office (NSO) in 1957, known as " The Household Expenditure Survey". This name was changed to the Household Socio-Economic Survey in 1968 - 1969 and the survey was conducted every five years. Due to the rapid economic expansion and the importance of the survey in order to set the anti-poverty policy, the Ministerial Cabinet had passed an approval on September 8, 1987 for the NSO to carry out the survey every two years. The 2006 survey is the 18th survey of this kind. (The 1999 was conducted special periodic survey by the cabinet assignment.)
Abstract

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
A Stratified Two–stage Sampling was adopted for the survey. Provinces were considered to be constituted strata. There were altogether 76 strata, each stratum was divided into two parts according to the type of local administration, namely, municipal areas, and non-municipal areas.
1) Selection of Primary Sampling Units
The sample selection of blocks/villages was performed separately and independently in each part by using probability proportional to the total number of households in that block or village.
2) Selection of Secondary Sampling Units
In this stage, private households were the ultimate sampling units. Households in every sample block and village were listed to serve as the sampling frame then the set of households was rearranged by size of household (classified by number of household members) and type of economic household (determined on the basis of the occupation type which produces the highest income in the household), Finally private sampled households were selected by using the systematic method in each type of local administration with the following sample sizes :
(a) 15 households from each of sample blocks in municipal areas
(b) 10 households from each of sample villages in non–municipal areas
The total number of private sampled households for the whole year were 51,970 households.
