Description
Definition
HHWASTE reports how the household disposes of its kitchen waste and trash.
The information in HHWASTE is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
