Comparability with IPUMS-DHS
In IPUMS-PMA, STRUCTURNO may refer to a larger physical unit (such as an apartment building) within which a dwelling may be embedded. By contrast, the IPUMS-DHS variable STRUCTURNO refers to a dwelling unit number within a household. For example, the male head and multiple wives and their children may form a single household for a polygamous family, but one wife and her children may occupy a small dwelling within a larger compound (denoted by STRUCTURNO) in IPUMS-DHS.
