Description
GEO2_MW2008 identifies the household's Traditional Authority (TA) within Malawi in 2008. Traditional Authorities (TAs) are the second level administrative units of the country, after districts. A GIS map (in shapefile format), corresponding to GEO2_MW2008 can be downloaded from the GIS Boundary files page in the IPUMS International web site.
The full set of geography variables for Malawi can be found in the IPUMS International Geography variables list. For cross-national geographic analysis on the first and second major administrative level of any country refer to GEOLEV1, and GEOLEV2. More information on IPUMS-International geography can be found here.
