Urbanisation rate

Urbanisation rate = the increase in degree of urbanisation (each year, in %)

Two ways to tell more about the urbanisation rate of a country:

1. Calculate the difference in degree of urbanisation between two years

Degree of urbanisation (1950) = 10%

Degree of urbanisation (2021) = 63%

Urbanisation rate Gambia

2021: 83%

1950: 10%

Urbanisation rate 1950-2021 = 83 - 10 = 73%
