| indicator | string | What is measured, one of 41 values. total_fertility_rate is the expected births per woman.

| breakdown_value | string | The value of that dimension. Rwanda for national; Urban or Rural for area; a province name matching the EICV and census datasets, normalised from the source's abbreviations; a wealth quintile from Lowest to Fifth; an age band, education level or number of living children otherwise. | - |
| sex | string | male, female, or total. These tables report women, so total throughout. | - |
| value | float64 | Indicator value, scale set by unit. | - |
| unit | string | Unit of the value column. percent for rates and shares, women for the counts, and births per woman for the total fertility rate. | - |
