This is a synthetic data set based on GLSS data from 2006. The
original sample was provided by Ghana Statistical Service.
Details
The data set consists of 8700 households and is used as sample data in some of
the examples in package simPopulation. Note that it is included for
illustrative purposes only. The sample weights do not reflect the true
population sizes of Ghana and its regions. The resulting population data is
about 100 times smaller than the real population size to save computation time.
Only some of the variables in the original survey are included in this example
data set. Furthermore, categories are aggregated for certain variables due to
the large number of possible outcomes in the original survey data.
