Description

Definition

GEO1_KEX identifies the household's province or national capital within Kenya in all sample years. Provinces or national capital are the first level administrative units of the country. GEO1_KEX is harmonized by name and does not account for boundary changes over time.

The full set of geography variables for Kenya can be found in the IPUMS International Geography variables list. For cross-national geographic analysis on the first and second major administrative level refer to GEOLEV1, and GEOLEV2. More information on IPUMS-International geography can be found here.

At the present moment, IPUMS International is only releasing integrated geography for the first level of geography for Kenya. Year specific geography and maps along with variables that are spatially harmonized at the second level of geography and account for political boundary changes across census years will become available in the near future.
