In 2013, the World Bank, in collaboration with the Ministry of Planning and Development implemented the 2013 Somaliland Household Survey (SHS 2013). Somaliland self-declared independence in 1991. The survey interviewed 852 urban and 873 rural households. The sample was drawn randomly based on a multi-level clustered design. This dataset contains information on consumption, income and household characteristics. The sample is representative of urban Somaliland, and parts of rural Somaliland. It does not include nomadic households or those affected by the ongoing conflict. The data and code reproduce some of the results from the original submission of the SHS 2013, but also comparable poverty estimates to those obtained with the Somali High Frequency Survey.
