Myanmar Living Conditions Survey Sample design  Nationwide coverage (sample dispersed across all districts and 296 townships of Myanmar).  Use new master sampling frame from the 2014 census covering all populations in Myanmar; sample design much more efficient than earlier household surveys.  Sample will allow us to produce estimates at the urban/rural level, and at the state/region level .  Total sample of 13,824 household.  Rolling 12-month fieldwork period to fully account for seasonality. Quarterly (3-month) nationally representative sub- samples.  Two-stage stratified clustered sampling. First sample census enumeration areas, then sample 12 households per enumeration area. 14
