Data contains community information on the size and composition of the community, availability of critical services and infrastructures such as roads and water, access to electricity, availability of civil services such as schools and banks, whether any development projects had been implemented, availability of health services, business activity, and energy/fuel prices. The dataset also contains household member information such as sex, age, relationship, education, employment, and health. It also collected information on the household's use of electrical and non-electrical energy devices and appliances, income-generating activities, consumption and expenditures, telephones, time use, assets, income, energy use, and electricity use. In-migrants, newly formed households, and out-migrants were asked additional questions about why they chose to move or form a new household and questions about their income and electricity use before moving or forming their household.
Data was collected using community and household surveys.
