Hello,
I’ve encountered an issue while working with the France 1999 dataset and its “IND” variable. There seems to be a mismatch between the codes in my dataset and those listed in the documentation.
In my dataset:
. keep if sample == “France 1999”
(4,768,013 observations deleted)
. tab ind
Industry, |
unrecoded | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------±----------------------------------
1000 | 47,322 4.10 4.10
1010 | 466 0.04 4.14
1030 | 11 0.00 4.14
1110 | 265 0.02 4.16
/* additional codes omitted */
However, in the IPUMS documentation lists completely different codes:
Code | Label | Frequency |
---|---|---|
011 | Agriculture, forestry, fishing | 47,322 |
020 | Agriculture and food industries | 31,350 |
031 | Clothing, leather goods | 38,008 |
/* additional codes omitted */ |
Could you please check on this or let me know how to reconcile these different coding schemes? Thank you!
