Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
To generate the Region and Area of residence, the original variables will be recoded to include the country UN standardized 3 digits code (already used in COUNTRY) in addition to the REG or AREA code, standardized on 3 digits as well.
This is to avoid possible mismatches between these two variables' codes across different countries when the datasets are merged.
COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The Governorates classification follows the Guide of Administrative Units in Egypt for the year 2010 as indicated by CAPMAS.
The 2010 classification includes two additional Governorates, compared to other years, namely: Helwan and 6 of October.
