The research area can be roughly divided into a wealthier upper section and a relatively poor lower section.During most o f the term of my fieldwork I lived in the upper section of the ward, where 1 rented a house ivith a former head of the neighborhood.I tried to participate in daily life as much as possible, so that I was able to observe daily activities and social interaction, engage in informal conversations with a wide variety o f people, and eavesdrop on all kinds o f gossip.In the meantime, I conducted a large number o f more or less structured interviews with both women and men.To gather more quantitative data, I organized a structured questionnaire distributed among 156 households, while at the same time I found ten women prepared to fill in booklets with daily income and expenditures for two separate months
