Merged & City Databases

New datasets will be merged into these ‘master’ data files progressively. Please consult the generic coding guides as appropriate. Also, note that each individual (city) dataset is hosted on the city’s own page. These data sets are usually accompanied by detailed settlement descriptions and specific protocols that were applied in each city. In some cities additional questions were applied as part of that city’s survey. These data are located at the end of the city dataset but are not included in the ‘master’ data files which only include questionnaire data that were common to all cities and which are, therefore, directly comparable.

Owners:

Renters:

(Guadalajara; Monterrey (only a few cases note); others to be added as they come on line. See also individual city databases below).

Individual City Databases

Owners: These two datasets (owners and complete owners) are for owner households in Santiago. The ‘Owners Complete.’ includes many of the additional mobility variables that were applied in two of the settlements in Santiago – see the Coding Guides for that City in Research Methodology. The ‘Owners Compatible.’ dataset is given here separately, but it has also been merged into the overall (merged) dataset with other cities in the LAHN network.


Renters: These two datasets are for renters in Santiago. They apply for two of the settlements. No renters were found or interviewed in El Bosque II. The ‘Renters Complete.’ includes many of the additional mobility variables that were applied in two of the settlements in Santiago – see the Coding Guides for that City in Research Methodology. The ‘Renters Compatible.’ dataset is data that may be compared with the Mexico renters database although it is not directly comparable and for this reason has not been merged with the Mexico renters datasets. However, both files contain relatively few cases (16).

Coding and Instruments for Surveys Presented Here


SPSS Guatemala

This file contains the individual level data (age, place and sector of work, etc.) for individuals within the household. Individuals are coded in relation to a single head of household and there is a variable associating them with the particular household which they form a part of. Both renters and owners are included in this set.



This file contains household level data on owners in La Florida. The survey was conducted in July of 2009.2


This file contains household level data on renters in La Florida. The survey was conducted in July of 2009.


This is the latest SPSS file for the Monterrey Study — owners and renters (but note the Monterrey renters files has few cases. See the Merged Renters datafiles above)
