The HH dataset contains data collected through the Household Questionnaire of the Nepal Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (NMICS) 2024. It provides information on household characteristics and living conditions necessary for monitoring key social and economic indicators. The dataset includes household identification variables, housing characteristics, access to drinking water and sanitation, household assets, use of information and communication technologies, energy sources, handwashing facilities, and other household-level indicators. The file serves as the principal source for estimating household-level MICS indicators and is linked to individual-level datasets through common household identifiers.
