Description

Definition
HHDEATHYR (HV249) indicates whether any member of the household died in the 12 months before the survey.

The information in HHDEATHYR 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.
