This collapsed version of codes for length of residence in present
home was constructed so that all years in which the question was asked
could be incorporated. Variables with fuller codes for this question
(but not including all years) are forthcoming in the next release.
Note that 1960 post-only Rs were asked this question in the post IW:
their responses were incorporated into the pre var.
In 1974,1976 no code appeared for "all of life," so no cases appear in
code 6 for 1974 or 1976.
