General Household Survey 2024

General Household Survey 2024

Statistics South Africa has been conducting the General Household Survey (GHS) annually since 2002. The survey replaced the October Household Survey (OHS) that took place between 1993 and 1999. The survey is an omnibus household-based instrument aimed at determining the progress of development in the country.

GHS measures, on a regular basis, the performance of programmes as well as the quality of service delivery in a number of key service sectors in the country. Six broad areas are covered in the survey, namely education, health and social development, housing, households’ access to services and facilities, food security, and agriculture. The current GHS datasets contain data collected in year 2024.
