Hello,

I'm currently running a research project that requires the use of wealth quintiles over the years in Malawi, looking specifically at the women's questionnaire. I notice that for the 2004 survey onwards, wealth quintile is included in the data under "v190". However, I fail to locate the wealth quintile variable for the 2000 survey. I've looked for it under "v190" as well as "hv270".

Am I missing something? There is a page on wealth index construction for 2000, so I figure there is a wealth quintile variable in the dataset, but please let me know if there's not. If there isn't, how could I import it or implement it myself?

Thanks!
