I have a dataset with 10,181 observations where each observation represents an individual held at a facility. Each element has information about when the individual was "booked into" (i.e., admitted) custody, when the person was "booked out" (i.e., released) from custody, and the facility where the individual was held. There are 113 unique facilities. The "book in" variable ranges from 09mar2012 to 01mar2018. The "book out" variable ranges from 18may2013 to 01jun2018. There is no missingness.
How do I compute the daily population for each facility? How do I count the number of individuals in custody at each facility for everyday from 09mar2012 to 01jun2018?
I have included a simple data example below. I am using Stata 15.1. Any help is great appreciated--thank you for your time.
