For new households in SOEP and for old households that have moved, the variable is based on newly collected data. In case the information is missing and an old household has moved that year or the previous year, HGMOVEYR is given the value of the year of the respective wave. The carrying forward of data entails the possibility that the year of moving into the new dwelling may lie before the year of birth of the oldest household member. hgcnstyr – Year House Was Built ?When, approximately, was the house built in which your flat is located?

HGOSUBS contains information on cash housing subsidies received from the government during the year prior to the interview. Information is not carried forward. This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgreval – Rent Of Dwelling Vs Comparable Dwellings 1[1] Very Inexpensive 267 2[2] Inexpensive 879 3[3] Reasonable 1711 4[4] Slightly Expensive 640 5[5] Too Expensive 136 -1 [-1] No Answer 62 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 4101 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 11579 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 Subjective assessment by respondent (household head). The corresponding information from the previous year is not carried forward longitudinally due to the possibility of changes in rent and income, residential moves, and change in the person responding. This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgrsubs – Government Subsidized Housing 1[1] Yes, With due diligence 212 2[2] Yes, Exp.Subsidy 177 3[3] No 3905 -1 [-1] No Answer 19 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 4340 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 10722 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 SOEP Survey Papers 321 13 SOEP Innovation Sample (2014) hgen (2014) This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgreduc – Dwelling At A Reduced Prize 1[1] Yes 301 2[2] No 3773 -1 [-1] No Answer 239 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 4340 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 10722 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 Information is carried forward from the previous years for old households residing at their old address; for new households and for old households that have moved, newly collected data is used. This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgsize – Size of Housing Unit in Square Meters ?How large is the total living space in this flat? // qm (from: soep-is/soep-is-2014-a/Q15:hqm) ?How large is the total living space in this flat? // sqm (from: soep-is/soep-is-2014-f/Q15:HQM) 8 1 9 2 10 1 12 8 14 4 15 6 16 8 17 1 18 4 19 1 20 29 21 7 22 11 23 4 24 12 ...

Missing cases in 2009 and 2010 were imputed using a regression model with the following independent variables: • Number of rooms larger than 6 square meters (see variable HGROOM) • Size of the household (HHGR) • Status of ownership (HGOWNER) • Year house was constructed (HGCNSTYR) • Type of building (WUM1) • Adequacy of living space in housing unit (HGSEVAL) • SOEP Subsample (HSAMPLE) • Dummy variable coded “1” for households living in Eastern Germany The results of these imputations are also carried forward for up to two waves unless new information is provided in later waves. In case HGSIZE is imputed, the flag variable HGFSIZE takes the value “1”. The number of missing cases from 2011 on was reduced by carrying on the information from previous years, unless there was a relocation of the household. Note the possibility of a change in the size of the housing unit even when no relocation happened. We estimate that there was a (undetected) change in size of the housing unit for around 3% of the households that did not relocate. hgroom – Number Of Rooms Larger than 6 Square Meters 1 256 2 1221 3 2473 4 2000 5 1277 SOEP Survey Papers 321 15 SOEP Innovation Sample (2014) hgen (2014) 6 828 7 311 8 180 9 70 10 23 11 7 12 7 -1 [-1] No Answer 0 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 0 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 10722 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 The procedure of carrying forward and imputation is identical to that for HGSIZE. In the regression model the same covariates are used with the exception of HGROOM which is replaced with HGSIZE (size of the housing unit in square meters). In case information on HGSIZE is missing, a first imputation was done excluding HGSIZE. In case information for HGSIZE exists, these values were replaced with values obtained from a second imputation including HGSIZE as a covariate. In case HGROOM is imputed, the flag variable HGFROOM takes the value “1”. This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgheat – Costs Of Warm Water (gen) 0 1 1 1 5 1 7 1 8 3 9 3 10 7 11 3 12 1 13 1 14 4 15 6 16 5 17 2 18 11 ...

HGRENT is a measure of the gross rent including utility costs (HGUTIL) and excluding heating costs (HGHEAT). For further information on HGRENT, HGUTIL and HGHEAT please see the corresponding SOEP HGEN documentation. hgrent – Amount of Rent Minus Heating Costs (EUR) ?What is your monthly rent? // Euros (from: soep-is/soep-is-2014-f/Q18:HM04) 15 1 46 1 48 1 50 1 57 1 70 3 71 1 73 1 74 1 75 1 76 1 78 1 80 1 86 1 87 1 ...

The procedure of imputation is identical to that for HGHEAT. In the regression model the same covariates are used. In case HGELECTR is imputed, the flag variable HGFELECTR takes the value “1”. In the year 2011, no imputation of HGELECTR was conducted. This information is not assessed in the Questionnaire of the SOEP Innovation Sample from 2012 on, therefore this variable is not generated for these years and coded to “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgnorent – Does Not Pay Rent ?What is your monthly rent? // I don’t pay rent (from: soep-is/soep-is-2014-f/Q18:HM05) 1[1] Pays No Rent 464 SOEP Survey Papers 321 19 SOEP Innovation Sample (2014) hgen (2014) -1 [-1] No Answer 23 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 18377 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 511 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 Coded as “1” if the household does not pay rent; e.g., if living space is provided by relatives at no cost. Note that in these cases, the information on gross cold rent (HGRENT), heating costs (HGHEAT) and utilities (HGUTIL) is coded “-2” (“not applicable”). Information is not carried forward. hgfsize – Imputation Flag, Size Of Housing 0[0] Not imputed 8609 1[1] Imputed 44 -1 [-1] No Answer 0 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 0 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 10722 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 This variable contains information, whether the refering variable has been imputed.

This variable contains information, whether the refering variable has been imputed. If the refering information has not been assessed in the questionnaire, this flag also contains “-5” (not contained in questionnaire). hgfrent – Imputation Flag, Amount Of Rent Minus Heating Costs 0[0] not imputed 6397 1[1] Imputed 87 2[2] imputed cost allocation 1207 3[3] Imputed Costs Of Heating And Warm Water 962 -1 [-1] No Answer 0 -2 [-2] Does Not Apply 0 -3 [-3] Answer Improbable 0 -4 [-4] Inadmissible Multiple Answer 0 -5 [-5] Not Contained In Questionnaire 10722 -6 [-6] Questionnaire Version With Modified Filtering 0 HGFRENT indicates that at least one of the components of HGRENT (HGUTIL or HGHEAT) or HGRENT itself is imputed. It is only given positive values if the respective imputed component is part of HGRENT. “1”: The household did not provide information on the amount of HGRENT, thus the basic value of HGRENT is imputed. “2”: Utility costs are imputed and had to be added to the amount of rent stated to obtain the target measure of gross HGRENT. “3”: Heating costs are imputed and had to be deducted from the amount of rent stated to obtain the target measure of gross HGRENT excluding heating costs.

From 2009 onwards, the data production process switched to a standardized procedure for all waves to ensure longitudinal consistency, resulting in minor changes compared with older distributions. HGTYP1HH is an aggregation of HGTYP2HH (first column of the two-digit code). Single households are differentiated in HGTYP2HH according to both gender and age. Due to a slightly modified $STELL variable in the file PBRUTTO, the generation syntax of HGTYP1HH and HGTYP2HH needed to be updated in the year 2011.
