st: propensity score matching with ordered outcome variable

Hi all,
I have a question on propensity score matching for the outcome variable that
is not in continous form. For example, I collected the survey data as
follows. to find out if income for those living near border area is
difference than those living far away.
Let's say I have outcome variable (income) likes this,
y = 1 when income less than 10000
= 2 when income between 10001 and 20000
= 3 when income between 20001 and 40000
.....
= 6 when income more than 100000
My treatment variable t = 1 or 0 (being near border area is 1)
Set of covariates X are Age, Education, Housetype ...and so on
How can I do the matching in this case? will the "ordered outcome variable"
cause any problem As i have seen in many literature they have continous
variable for income variable, for example ATT? and how to interpret the
result after matching and also How can I do the post matching regression?
should I use ordered logit model in this case because my dependent variable
is in ordered
Sorry if my english is not very good.
Thank you
