Hello,

This is my first foray using DHS data. I am exploring nutritional data in Malawi and am specifically interested in childhood stunting, wasting, and underweight by cluster location. However, I have found that there are a different number of observations per cluster--for example, some clusters have as many as 17 survey entries and other clusters just 1. How should i go about excluding clusters and aggregating data by cluster in order to show some sort of concentration of stunting, etc. by cluster or district (by district would require aggregating clusters to a district polygon)?

Thank you,
Penelope
