Dear Stata Users:

I need to get the median rents for a group of renters living in
2-bedroom occupied housing units. I don't have the actual raw data set
to derive the medians. But I have a table with the following information
on the following Renter-Occupied categories:

Categories:                            Estimate total#
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
2-bedrooms:                          15,223,372            
with cash rent:                      14,449,016
< $200                                   335,924
$200 to $299                         385,018
$300 to $499                         1,849,604
$500 to $749                         4,898,457
$750 to $999                         3,803,812
> $1000                                3,176,201
no cash rent                          774,356
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does someone have any ideas to compute the median rent (i.e cash rent
and no cash rent) among all the groups. Can I do this in STATA?

Thanks!

MS
