| Description |
Volume I of the main results of the second Nepal Living Standards Survey 2003/04 (NLSS II). NLSS II sample size is representative of the population of the country. This report provides many useful insights into trends and levels of various aspects of socio-economic situation in Nepal in the last eight years.
Most tabulations in the report present results by development regions, ecological zones, urban/rural areas and household consumption quintiles.
• Five development regions: East, Central, West, Mid West, and Far West.
• Three ecological zones: Mountains, Hills, and Tarai.
• Two urban areas: Kathmandu Valley urban area and Other urban areas.
• Four rural areas:
- East Hills/Mountains (from East and Central development region)
- West Hills/Mountains (from West, Mid West and Far West development regions)
- East Tarai (from East and Central development region)
- West Tarai (from West, Mid West and Far West development regions).
• Consumption Quintiles: Based on nominal per capita household consumption (consumption aggregation methodology will be
described in Volume Two of the report), five consumption groups of equal population are generated. |
