Description
HORSENUM reports the total number of horses, donkeys, or mules owned by the household.
Users should be careful to distinguish this variable from HORSEHOME (the number of horses, donkeys, or mules on the household's homestead).
Respondents were asked to report what assets the household owned in order to calculate a wealth index based on assets. This information can be found in the variables SCORE, WEALTHQ, and WEALTHT.
The question associated with this variable was included in the household questionnaire.
