Greetings,

I'm writing with a question regarding the 2015-2016 Malawi DHS. I need to pull some variable values for the 15-24 female cohort at the district level. I've accessed the data files, isolated the needed districts, and kept data for the 15-24 female group. As expected, the sample is very, very small. In the case of Balaka district, there is only data for 391 women. My question: is this sample too small in order to report on select vars?

Thanks,
Kaja
