       PRE - COVERSHEET
       HOUSEHOLD LISTING:
       Household composition
       ---------------------------------------------------------------------

       The HH composition code is derived from information provided in
       the household listing.  "Adults" are 18 years of age (by
       election day) or older; all individuals included in the HH
       composition codes below refer to adults.

       A designation of a HH member as "the householder" (HHR)
       describes HU member who owns or rents the home (in whose
       name the lease is held).  Cohabiting couples are coded as
       married (30,40, 50-52).  Roommates of opposite sex are
       coded 11,12,21,22; in all cases of unrelated roommates the
       respondent is HHR.

       If R identifies self as married/partnered but spouse/partner
       is residing elsewhere (nursing home, job requirement or other
       reason), R is coded as adult male HHR/adult female HHR (codes
       10-22 and 60-95) and is identified as married/partnered in
       marital status question.
       In cases 8,49,77,157,377,535,580,814,1087,1117,1202,1212,1381,
       1639,1731 the partner/spouse identified in V000909 (marital
       status) was not a resident of the HU or was residing elsewhere
       on temporary basis. In cases 1281,1516,46,312,133,23,222 there
       is no information about spouse/partner in HH listing or
       elsewhere other than marital status question.
       Note: cases with missing coversheets may be coded in this
       variable from information in call records/thumbnails.
