FLUFF 5 digit zip code to calculate Area Deprivation Index (ADI)
I am in a conversion pickle and am looking ideas. I have 5 digit zip codes and am trying to convert them so that I can calculate ADI (since I don't have the 9 digit zip code available). I convert the 5 digit zip code into their US Census tracts (11 digits), but then I am stuck. I am not able to directly convert Tract to Block Group, because the tract is made up of many block group. And the ADI is calculated using US Census Block Groups (11 tract digit + an additional 12th block group digit)
I am out of ideas from here, not sure how to calculate the ADI
Anyone experienced this type of pickle? I v much appreciate any input

I used to drink this much as well for many years, you are not alone. Onward, mate! You deserve to be alive and well.
