Municipal multidimensional poverty incidence published by DANE from the 2018 National Population and Housing Census. This is a census approximation: five dimensions and 15 deprivation indicators defined at household level, with a weighted threshold of 33.3%. The source refers to actually censused private households and recommends considering census omission. The published percentage is retained without inferring numbers of people or households or recalculating denominators. It is neither current poverty nor an annual series comparable with the Quality of Life Survey IPM or Medellín’s local series. Do not sum or average municipalities to obtain department or national incidence. The current municipal reference polygon neither reconstructs 2018 boundaries nor allocates the value to neighborhoods or parcels. The technical publication is dated 31 January 2020; the retrieval date does not update the census. DANE data and GeoSAT adaptation CC BY 4.0; ORGOT geometry: official reuse terms. The service does not publish the percentage denominator. It cannot determine parcel conditions, benefit eligibility or neighborhood poverty. Reference geometry query parameters are retained in download provenance. Municipal boundary published by Gobernación del Valle del Cauca / ORGOT, Municipal Boundary layer.
