Characteristics of Households Table 3.1 provides basic background information on the households, with both weighted and unweighted numbers. Within households, the sex of the household head, region, residence, number of household members, and education of household head are shown. These background characteristics are used in subsequent tables in this report; the figures in the table are also intended to show the numbers of observations by major categories of analysis in the report, and provide important details to the interpretation of the data by respondents characteristics. The remaining tables in this report are presented only with weighted numbers. See Appendix A for more details about the weighting. The weighted and unweighted numbers of households are equal, since sample weights were normalized (See Appendix A). The table also shows the proportions of households with at least one child under 18, at least one child under five, and at least one eligible woman aged 15-49. The table also shows the weighted average household size estimated by the survey.
