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. 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). hgfroom – Imputation Flag, Number Of Rooms Lager than 6 Square Meters SOEP Survey Papers 1349 13 SOEP Innovation Sample (v39) hgen 0[0] Not imputed 8632 1[1] Imputed 21 -1 No Answer 0 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 This variable contains information, whether the refering variable has been imputed.

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). hgeqpbas – Dwelling Has Basement 1[1] Yes 8202 2[2] No 419 -1 No Answer 32 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 SOEP Survey Papers 1349 15 SOEP Innovation Sample (v39) hgen -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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). hgeqpgar – Dwelling Has Garden 1[1] Yes 5598 2[2] No 3028 -1 No Answer 27 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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). hgeqphea – Dwelling Has Central,Floor Heat 1[1] Yes 8327 2[2] No 306 -1 No Answer 20 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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). hgeqpiwc – Dwelling Has Indoor Toilet 1[1] Yes 5876 SOEP Survey Papers 1349 16 SOEP Innovation Sample (v39) hgen 2[2] No 19 -1 No Answer 2758 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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). hgeqpkit – Dwelling Has Kitchen 1[1] Yes 8558 2[2] No 77 -1 No Answer 18 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 35778 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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). hgeqplif – Dwelling Has An Elevator 1[1] Yes 255 2[2] No 3765 -1 No Answer 14 -2 Does not apply 0 -3 Answer improbable 0 -4 Inadmissible multiple response 0 -5 Not included in this version of the questionnaire 40397 -6 Version of questionnaire with modified filtering 0 -7 Only available in less restricted edition 0 -8 Question not part of the survey program this year 0 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).

It was introduced by Eurostat more than 30 years ago in order to provide a single uniform breakdown of territorial units for the production of regional statistics. NUTS 1 especially contains the major socio-economic regions SOEP Survey Papers 1349 22 SOEP Innovation Sample (v39) hgen terviewed personally, this income can be calculated based on the current individual monthly incomes of all household members. Possible underestimation in “screener” can thus be assessed and corrected. However, in the case of item-nonresponse on the original screener, the procedure is only used for households surveyed completely, without item-non-response on the variables in question. For personal income, we use monthly net income (from dependent employment and selfemployment), extra earnings, pensions, widow’s pensions, unemployment benefits or relief, maintenance payments, early retirement payments, maternity benefits, BaFoeG (state higher education grants), military or civil service pay, compulsory child support, as well as other forms of support from the P files. Civil servants’ pensions income is taxed at the flat rate of 20% and multiple entries on the use of employment office services are corrected for by calculating a median value. We add all the individual incomes of all interviewed household members, also adding to this sum all income from the household context (housing subsidies, child benefits, welfare and home nursing subsidies, social assistance; since 2005 also Unemployment Benefit II (“ALG II”) or Social Benefit). When no answer was provided on net household income, we use the net household income calculated as described above, under the condition that all household members gave valid answers. If the net household income generated in this way is higher than the household income stated in the questionnaire, we correct the value upwards. When no answer was given for the different components of income, we set the value of the particular component at zero. HGAHINC was not generated from 2011 on. hgi6hinc – 6.
