Thank you for your feedback. I am actually trying to generate community level variable using the individual level categorical variable as given in the DHS data set. My next question is regarding the validity of this particular method of constructing community level variable. More precisely, can we take mean of categorical variable while constructing community level variable using a category ( lowest quintile for poverty in this case).
Looking forward
