proc distance: Hierarchical clustering by categorical variable

[al165275]

I made a cluster with the average of the variables separated by marital status. In my data I have information about customers. For example, I have the average number of contracts, average number of children, average monthly income and median age.

I'm in doubt if it makes sense to cluster with the average separated by marital status.

I used proc distance method = Euclid and proc cluster method = ward

How did you achieve the separation by marital status?
