Previously, the scope of the dataset included five districts in central Lima, so the reported value was a five-district aggregate. BCRP has expanded its scope, and now reports a 12-district aggregate and two six-district sub-aggregates, differentiated by income. The new aggregates have shorter history.

In response, we have:

1. Archived the predecessors (five-district high sector aggregate, 1998Q1 to 2018Q4) by renaming with an "_18" specifier, marking metadata as discontinued, and segregating in the catalog. 
2. Created one-for-one replacements (six-district high sector aggregate, geo code IPER_BCRP_HS), which start at 2013Q1.
3. Added the six-district middle sector aggregate (geo code IPER_BCRP_MS).
4. Added the 12-district aggregate (geo code IPER_BCRP_HMSD).
5. Created a seasonally adjusted supplement for each NSA series.
6. Refurbished the catalog.

Properties are otherwise unchanged (see Mnemonic 411).

The series reside in the historical catalog:
