Community survey 2016 reports

Two Community survey 2016 reports have been published: Community survey 2016 in brief and Community survey 2016 data quality report. "Community Survey 2016 (CS) is the second largest survey undertaken by Statistics South Africa following the one conducted in 2007. The survey remains one of the main data sources that provide indicators at national, provincial and municipal levels for planning and monitoring the performance of specific development programmes such as education, health, sanitation, water supply, housing and transport. In addition, the survey provides demographic information critical in understanding population-development nexus. The objective of the community survey was thus to provide population estimates as well as household characteristics. The information will be used to inform Integrated Development Plans and infrastructure investment budgeting."
