Hi Liz and Dr. Rutstein,

Thank you for this information!

I can see now that when we want to know the population level statistics of the wealth distribution, we use the household weight (hv005). When we want to know how to divide the households into quintiles, we must use the hhmemwt.

All the best,
Amy
