Notes: Samples include balanced panels of all children with valid anthropometric measurements in each age group. Age controls are binary indicators for age-in-months at measurement; cluster level time trends are binary indicators for each cluster in 2012. Migrant household is defined as a household with at least one migrant in the U.S. in three of the four years 2005-08 for children under three years old in 2008 and three of the four years for children three to six years old in 2008. Standard errors estimated allowing for clustering at the community level in parentheses. *** indicates significance at p<0.01, ** at p<0.05, and * at p<0.10.
