Summary 

The Pakistan Social and Living Standards Measurement Survey (PSLM) collected information on social issues, behavioral practices, and health status of households. These data were gathered in order to develop indicators to compare with past rounds of the PSLM so that trends could be observed. The indicators produced by this survey also serve to monitor progress toward Pakistan's Millennium Development Goals (MDG). These data were collected through interviews in the home. The main topic areas explored were health, water supply, sanitation, education, fertility, income, and household expenditures.
