District-level sex ratio and district-level age distribution [message #23960]

Hi,
I am using the 2015-2016 DHS data for India (NFHS-4), and I would like to calculate the following:

1. District-level sex ratio (not at birth but in the total population)
2. District-level age distribution (e.g. in 5-year categories, or % below 15 years of age, or something similar)

I was wondering: a) how these would be calculated from the dataset, and b) which dataset would be best to use for these estimations - I assume the household survey would be best, but am not sure.

Thank you very much for your help!
