AHS

The Variable Name Index for the American Housing Survey has
been updated to cover the 2005 AHS. You can download the new
version from the HUD USER web site,
https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/ahs.html .

The Variable Name Index is a table that cross-indexes all of
the variable names ever used in AHS datasets with the survey
years. Thus, you can use it to find out the years in which a
particular variable was used. The index is available as a
comma-separated values file (csv). Most spreadsheet,
database, statistical, etc. programs can automatically import
csv files.
