Description

Definition

HOMERENTDOCOTHER indicates whether the household has some "other" document establishing the rental of their dwelling. The meaning of "other" depends on the types of rental documentation specified in a given survey.

The information in HOMERENTDOCOTHER 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.
