If your library has purchased access to Landscan data (http://www.eastview.com/online/landscan), you can
get population density information (1 km resolution). I’m thinking there might be a publicly available alternative, but can’t locate it right now.

Subject: Advice on determining urban versus rural areas in Kenya
Hello Jessica:
I hope all is well.
I would like help to determine towns/cities in Kenya that are urban versus rural. This is for research purposes, where we would like to look at this variable for analysis of services
to people with disabilities in both settings.
I thought the library might have some sociological or demographic software to determine rural vs. urban areas of a country.
Besides Kenya, I intend to look at other countries, too. Thanks for your help.
