Explore how IPUMS created this variable
Most IPUMS data transformations are performed using variable harmonization tables that specify how each value in the source data is recoded. Some variables also require programming logic in addition to the harmonization table. The harmonization documents for this variable are:
- Harmonization table
- Supplemental programming
- Instructions for interpreting harmonization documents

Description
MIG1_1_IE indicates the person's region of residence within Ireland one year prior to the census.
Click on the Source Variables tab for information on place of residence for each sample year. Source variables may contain more geographic unit detail but are not suitable for cross-temporal comparison.
Comparability — General
This variable is comparable across time apart from the minor difference in the universe between 1996 and 2002. The universe for the 2002 to 2016 samples is non-absent persons age 1+, whereas the universe for earlier samples is persons age 1+.
The 2011 sample provides county of prior residence, available in the source variable.
Northern Ireland is included in 'Abroad.' The 2016 sample only reports information for persons residing in their county of birth one year prior to the census; other persons are coded to "Ireland, region not specified."
For the country of residence one year ago of international migrants, see MIGCTRY1
