Description

Definition
TRCLOTH (HV237C) indicates whether the household strained water through cloth to make the water safer to drink.

The information in TRCLOTH is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
