Description

Definition
TOILETSHAREYN (HV225) indicates whether the household has a toilet facility that is shared with at least one other household. A "no" response (code "0") indicates the household has a toilet that is not shared; a "yes" response (code "1") indicates the household shares a toilet facility; "not in universe" (code "9") means the household has no toilet facility.

The information in TOILETSHAREYN 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 when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
