What this dataset contains
The platform aggregates the Department of Census and Statistics GN household workbook to its published 2024 Divisional Secretariat codes. Shares are weighted from the source category counts; average household size joins the provisional population and household workbooks on those codes.
How it is used here
The chart ranks average household size, while the table retains selected drinking-water, cooking, lighting and toilet categories for bounded comparison.
What it cannot tell you
The source categories are not relabelled as safe, clean or improved. The source has 340 Divisional Secretariat codes, which do not directly match the platform’s older 331-boundary geometry set.
