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
class Mig1_1_gr : public Editor {
public:
Mig1_1_gr(VarPointer varInfo) : Editor(varInfo) {}
void edit() {
long a = getRecoded();
switch (dataSet) {
case dataset_id::gr2011a: {
if (GR2011A_0413() == 5)
a = 300996;
} break;
}
setData(a);
}
};
Description
MIG1_1_GR indicates the person's department of residence one year ago within Greece.
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
See MIG1_5_GR for department of residence 5 years ago.
Several geographical units in Greece have been combined by the National Statistical Service of Greece, which is different from the regionalization implemented on other IPUMS countries.
Where officially-defined departments have populations under 20,000, they have been regionalized (combined) with neighboring departments.
Confidentiality issues:
- Aghion Oros department is combined with Chalkidiki department in all sample years for confidentiality reasons.
