I would be grateful if someone could advise me on how to get an estimate for the question described below (it is just a fictitious example):
Country: Tanzania
DHS 2022
Region: Dar es Salaam
Clusters: 141+ 142
Desired estimates: (1) Total number and (2) the proportion of children under 5 years old, in the clusters 141 and 142, over the total
population of Dar es Salaam.
I know that in Dar es Salaam this proportion is around 11.6 (https://sensa.nbs.go.tz/publication/report7.pdf), but I need to know
an estimate for particular clusters in relation to the respective region. In the GPS file TZGC81FL.csv, I found the cells (1)
UN_Population_Count_2020, (2) U5_Population_2020, (3) All_Population_Count_2020, for each cluster, but I noticed that the
cells (1) and (3) seem to have very different numbers.

Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
The Stata lines below illustrate how to get the kinds of numbers I think you are looking for. I am using the PR file for the 2022 survey.
use "...TZPR82FL.DTA" , clear
* hv024 is region
describe hv024
* the label for hv024 is HV024; list it
label list HV024
* which clusters are in hv024=7
tab hv001 if hv024==7
* Look at children in clusters 141 and 142
gen agelt5=0
replace agelt5=1 if hv105<5
label define agelt5 0 "Age 5+" 1 "Age0-4"
label values agelt5 agelt5
* Unweighted
tab agelt5 if hv024==7
tab agelt5 if hv001==141 | hv001==142
* Weighted
tab agelt5 if hv024==7 [iweight=hv005/1000000]
tab agelt5 if hv001==141 | hv001==142 [iweight=hv005/1000000] |
