Codes and Frequencies
Description
GEO1_ BJ identifies the household's department of residence within Benin in the 2014 MICS survey. Departments are the primary level of geography in Benin.
The first three digits of GEO1_BJ provide the country code; the last three digits specify the geographic unit within the country. Leading zeros are used when the geographical unit within the country requires less than a three-digit code.
A GIS map (in shapefile format) corresponding to GEO1_BJ is available on the GIS Boundary files page. The full set of geography variables for all MICS samples and countries can be found at IPUMS MICS Geography.
