2019 Kenya Population and Housing Census (KPHC) Volume I - Population by County and Sub-County

Abstract

The 2019 Kenya Population and Housing Census (KPHC) was conducted in August 2019 and followed the United Nations principles and recommendations for conducting the 2020 round of censuses. The Census collected information on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the population. In addition, information relating to housing amenities and emigrants was collected. The theme for the census was “Counting Our People for Sustainable Development and Devolution of Services”. The theme resonates well with Kenya’s development agenda Vision 2030 and the Big Four, as well as other regional and International development initiatives including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the African Union Agenda 2063. The information contained herein responds to the ever-increasing demand for official statistical information and provides benchmark information for other statistical development and infrastructure.
