Household integrated economic survey

Another dataset is taken from Social & Household Integrated Economic Survey (HIES), conducted in Pakistan during the years 2013-14. This dataset (that contains 46257 households) comprises all urban and rural areas of four provinces of Pakistan, namely Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan, while excluding FATA and military restricted areas. This dataset of either rural or urban area is first partitioned into provinces, where each province is further partitioned into different enumeration blocks. Here, the province and enumeration block (EB) are taken as PSU and SSU, respectively, whilst the rural and urban areas are two strata. This dataset can be download from the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics web-page via the link: https://www.pbs.gov.pk/content/microdata.
