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.

 

Paul Ajuwon

 

Below are the areas of Kenya I would like to look at in terms of rural vs. urban:
