Betreff: st: How do I create variables summarizing for each individual
properties of other individuals with same covariates value?

Dear Statalisters,
I have this kind of problem.

given this 5 variables:

education, age, region, activity, income
 I would like to generate a variable that is the mean of income across
people with:
1) same education
 2) the same age group, within 5 years younger or older than the
individual concerned
3) same region
4) same activity

Then I would like to assign the mean calculated to the person that has
the same covariates value. I think that the problems could be solved
with some stata commands as foreach, but I am not able to set the
problem in stata.

How to do this with stata?

Many thanks in advance,

Vincenzo
