The growth of urbanization in Ethiopia, 1966-1984.
"This paper studies the growth and dynamics of urbanization in Ethiopia during the period 1966-1984.  Despite its very low level of urbanization (10.6%), Ethiopia experienced rapid urban population growth of 4.8% per annum over the period.  The urban growth was more rapid at the beginning (1966-70 = 6.6%) then slowed down to 4.23% in 1970-1984.  There is highly uneven regional distribution of urbanization with the core urban region accommodating close to half the urban population; within regions, the majority of the urban population is concentrated in one or very few large urban areas." Data are from the preliminary results of the 1984 census, the two rounds of urban National Sample Surveys, and the Manpower and Housing Survey.
