I am referring to NFHS-4 (2015-16) (India & 2015-16).

I am trying to replicate the urban area file given here in Excel format: https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Analysis-Code/tree/main/Mu ltilevel_Weights/India
I found discrepancies in the "total number of households" in the "urban area" given in the file on "dhs_github" and the original file from Census of India-- link is given below.

I accessed the census_pca file here-- https://censusindia.gov.in/census.website/data/census-tables # than searched "pca block wise"
then I filtered this file for the urban area for many districts, but "the total number of household" do not match with dhs_excel file given on first link

My query is how to:
1. How to replicate the "EA average size_Urban.xlsx" given on github page of DHS.
2. How to find EA in urban area
3. Finally, how to find the size of the rural clusters

Hope this clarifies.
