This dataset contains data and replication code for the study “How Much Do Our Neighbors Really Know? The Limits of Community-Based Targeting,” which examines the accuracy and determinants of information used by community members in participatory targeting exercises. The study was conducted in Purworejo Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, using a sample of 300 participants randomly selected across 10 neighborhood units (RTs).</p> The data shared here is a subset of the full dataset used in the paper’s analysis. The baseline survey, conducted via in-person household visits in March–April 2021, collected data on demographic characteristics, community engagement, detailed consumption and asset ownership, exposure to shocks, and receipt of social benefits. Immediately following the survey, participants completed incentivized experimental tasks, including household wealth rankings and belief elicitation exercises related to other community members.</p> A follow-up survey, conducted in June–July 2021 with a subsample of participants, re-administered selected ranking tasks to capture changes in perceptions over time. In each RT, a community meeting exercise was also held to generate a group-based consensus ranking of all participant households.</p> This dataset supports replication of the study’s findings on the informational limits of community-based targeting and provides a rich resource for researchers working on social information, poverty targeting, behavioral economics, and participatory development interventions.
