Description

MIGFARM5 identifies individuals who lived on a farm during 1935. See MIGRATE5 for a summary of all the IPUMS variables using the residence 5- and 1-year ago responses. See the household-record variable, FARM for a definition of farm status.

Comparability

MIGFARM5 is only available for 1940 1%. Users should note that MIGFARM1, MIGFARM5 and FARM are residence variables and not occupation variables. Enumerators were instructed to code these variables "yes" if the household lived on a farm even if none of the individuals in the household worked on a farm. On the other hand, when a farmer and his family did not live on the farm, enumerators were instructed to code that household "no."

MIGFARM1 provides analogous information for sample-line persons in 1950, using a one-year rather than a five-year reference period.
