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

Means the governorate in which the person was born. If the person was born in the same governorate that he dwells in on the census day the sign (x) is indicated in the square opposite to the phrase (in this governorate) but if the person was born in other governorate or abroad the sign is indicated to the phrase (in other governorate or abroad), the name of the governorate or country is recorded in the space indicated.
