Hello Everyone,

The idea is to examine the effect of the distance of the centroids of DHS clusters to nearby facilities on child health. We pull the independent cross-sections together to run two-way fixed effects. However, we just read that DHS clusters are not the same across surveys, which has serious consequences for our analysis. We will be glad if anyone is willing to give any suggestions on how best to tackle this issue?

We are running high-dimensional fixed effects (reghdfe) in STATA.

Instead of using DHS clusters, you can switch to more stable geographic units such as districts, provinces, raft wars, or administrative regions. Combine cluster data with these administrative units for consistency.
