Summary 

Censuses provide population numbers, household or family size and composition, and information on sex and age distribution. They often include other demographic, economic and health-related topics as well. The 2011 Nepal de jure census collected data through face-to-face interviews on housing, household demographics, employment, education, and fertility. The census day was June 22, 2011 and field work took place June 17-27. A 12% sample of households from the census (3,238,842 individuals) is available through IPUMS International at the University of Minnesota. Refer to the IPUMS website for guidelines on citing database versions.
