Limiting Age Range of ACS PUMS in Stata

Brooke Nadeau over 6 years ago

Hi all,

I am using ACS PUMS microdata files from 2005 to 2016 for research. In Stata, I am trying to limit the age range (20-25). If someone could direct me to the variable I should be using for the svyset command, I would be greatly appreciative.

Or if anyone has a better idea for a command to do this, please let me know.

Thank you!

Best,

Brooke

Hi Brooke, I am also starting to use PUMS data and will be analyzing it in STATA. I have not used the ACS before. If you have any tips or code that you would be willing to share I would be forever grateful.
