Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
Very few data providers construct a different weight for each member of the household. If a person weight exists in the original dataset, we do report it here (even though it turns out to be the same for all household members in most cases), otherwise we assign the household weight to all household members.
All statistical analysis performed should use the appropriate weight.
