The Life in Kyrgyzstan Study is a nationally representative longitudinal panel survey of households and individuals in Kyrgyzstan, conducted in seven waves between 2010 and 2025. The initial sample of 3,000 households was drawn by stratified two-stage random sampling across all seven provinces and the cities of Bishkek and Osh, and supports disaggregation by urban and rural areas and by northern and southern regions. All household members are tracked over time, including those who leave to form new households. Every adult, and from 2019 every household member aged 14–17, is interviewed individually, allowing analyses within households and over the life course. Separate face-to-face questionnaires collect data at the community, household, farm, and individual levels on demographics, education, health, employment, agriculture, assets, expenditure, income, migration, shocks, subjective well-being, risk attitudes, trust, and social and political participation. A master roster links individuals and households across waves. The data are available for not-for-profit research, policy analysis, and teaching.
