Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
Foreword
Kenya, like all African countries, focused on poverty alleviation at independence, perhaps due to the level of
vulnerability of its populations but also as a result of the ‘trickle down’ economic discourses of the time, which
assumed that poverty rather than distribution mattered – in other words, that it was only necessary to concentrate
on economic growth because, as the country grew richer, this wealth would trickle down to benefit the poorest
sections of society. Inequality therefore had a very low profile in political, policy and scholarly discourses. In
recent years though, social dimensions such as levels of access to education, clean water and sanitation are
important in assessing people’s quality of life. Being deprived of these essential services deepens poverty and
reduces people’s well-being. Stark differences in accessing these essential services among different groups
make it difficult to reduce poverty even when economies are growing. According to the Economist (June 1, 2013),
a 1% increase in incomes in the most unequal countries produces a mere 0.6 percent reduction in poverty. In the
most equal countries, the same 1% growth yields a 4.3% reduction in poverty. Poverty and inequality are thus part
of the same problem, and there is a strong case to be made for both economic growth and redistributive policies.
From this perspective, Kenya’s quest in vision 2030 to grow by 10% per annum must also ensure that inequality
is reduced along the way and all people benefit equitably from development initiatives and resources allocated.
Since 2004, the Society for International Development (SID) and Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) have
collaborated to spearhead inequality research in Kenya. Through their initial publications such as ‘Pulling Apart:
Facts and Figures on Inequality in Kenya,’ which sought to present simple facts about various manifestations
of inequality in Kenya, the understanding of Kenyans of the subject was deepened and a national debate on
the dynamics, causes and possible responses started. The report ‘Geographic Dimensions of Well-Being in
Kenya: Who and Where are the Poor?’ elevated the poverty and inequality discourse further while the publication
‘Readings on Inequality in Kenya: Sectoral Dynamics and Perspectives’ presented the causality, dynamics and
other technical aspects of inequality.
KNBS and SID in this publication go further to present monetary measures of inequality such as expenditure
patterns of groups and non-money metric measures of inequality in important livelihood parameters like
employment, education, energy, housing, water and sanitation to show the levels of vulnerability and patterns of
unequal access to essential social services at the national, county, constituency and ward levels.
We envisage that this work will be particularly helpful to county leaders who are tasked with the responsibility
of ensuring equitable social and economic development while addressing the needs of marginalized groups
and regions. We also hope that it will help in informing public engagement with the devolution process and
be instrumental in formulating strategies and actions to overcome exclusion of groups or individuals from the
benefits of growth and development in Kenya.
It is therefore our great pleasure to present ‘Exploring Kenya’s inequality: Pulling apart or pooling together?’

Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
Income/expenditure inequalities
1. The five counties with the worst income inequality (measured as a ratio of the top to the bottom
decile) are in Coast. The ratio of expenditure by the wealthiest to the poorest is 20 to one and above
in Lamu, Tana River, Kwale, and Kilifi. This means that those in the top decile have 20 times as much
expenditure as those in the bottom decile. This is compared to an average for the whole country of
nine to one.
2. Another way to look at income inequality is to compare the mean expenditure per adult across
wards within a county. In 44 of the 47 counties, the mean expenditure in the poorest wards is less
than 40 percent the mean expenditure in the wealthiest wards within the county. In both Kilifi and
Kwale, the mean expenditure in the poorest wards (Garashi and Ndavaya, respectively) is less than
13 percent of expenditure in the wealthiest ward in the county.
3. Of the five poorest counties in terms of mean expenditure, four are in the North (Mandera, Wajir,
Turkana and Marsabit) and the last is in Coast (Tana River). However, of the five most unequal
counties, only one (Marsabit County) is in the North (looking at ratio of mean expenditure in richest
to poorest ward). The other four most unequal counties by this measure are: Kilifi, Kwale, Kajiado
and Kitui.
4. If we look at Gini coefficients for the whole county, the most unequal counties are also in Coast:
Tana River (.631), Kwale (.604), and Kilifi (.570).
5. The most equal counties by income measure (ratio of top decile to bottom) are: Narok, West Pokot,
Bomet, Nandi and Nairobi. Using the ratio of average income in top to bottom ward, the five most
equal counties are: Kirinyaga, Samburu, Siaya, Nyandarua, Narok.
Access to Education
6. Major urban areas in Kenya have high education levels but very large disparities. Mombasa, Nairobi
and Kisumu all have gaps between highest and lowest wards of nearly 50 percentage points in
share of residents with secondary school education or higher levels.
7. In the 5 most rural counties (Baringo, Siaya, Pokot, Narok and Tharaka Nithi), education levels
are lower but the gap, while still large, is somewhat lower than that espoused in urban areas. On
average, the gap in these 5 counties between wards with highest share of residents with secondary
school or higher and those with the lowest share is about 26 percentage points.
8. The most extreme difference in secondary school education and above is in Kajiado County where
the top ward (Ongata Rongai) has nearly 59 percent of the population with secondary education
plus, while the bottom ward (Mosiro) has only 2 percent.
9. One way to think about inequality in education is to compare the number of people with no education
to those with some education. A more unequal county is one that has large numbers of both. Isiolo
is the most unequal county in Kenya by this measure, with 51 percent of the population having
no education, and 49 percent with some. This is followed by West Pokot at 55 percent with no
education and 45 percent with some, and Tana River at 56 percent with no education and 44 with
some.

Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
Introduction
Background
For more than half a century many people in the development sector in Kenya have worked at alleviating
extreme poverty so that the poorest people can access basic goods and services for survival like food,
safe drinking water, sanitation, shelter and education. However when the current national averages are
disaggregated there are individuals and groups that still lag too behind. As a result, the gap between
the rich and the poor, urban and rural areas, among ethnic groups or between genders reveal huge
disparities between those who are well endowed and those who are deprived.
According to the world inequality statistics, Kenya was ranked 103 out of 169 countries making it the
66th most unequal country in the world. Kenya’s Inequality is rooted in its history, politics, economics
and social organization and manifests itself in the lack of access to services, resources, power, voice
and agency. Inequality continues to be driven by various factors such as: social norms, behaviours and
practices that fuel discrimination and obstruct access at the local level and/ or at the larger societal
level; the fact that services are not reaching those who are most in need of them due to intentional or
unintentional barriers; the governance, accountability, policy or legislative issues that do not favor equal
opportunities for the disadvantaged; and economic forces i.e. the unequal control of productive assets
by the different socio-economic groups.
According to the 2005 report on the World Social Situation, sustained poverty reduction cannot be
achieved unless equality of opportunity and access to basic services is ensured. Reducing inequality
must therefore be explicitly incorporated in policies and programmes aimed at poverty reduction. In
addition, specific interventions may be required, such as: affirmative action; targeted public investments
in underserved areas and sectors; access to resources that are not conditional; and a conscious effort
to ensure that policies and programmes implemented have to provide equitable opportunities for all.
This chapter presents the basic concepts on inequality and poverty, methods used for analysis,
justification and choice of variables on inequality. The analysis is based on the 2009 Kenya housing
and population census while the 2006 Kenya integrated household budget survey is combined with
census to estimate poverty and inequality measures from the national to the ward level. Tabulation of
both money metric measures of inequality such as mean expenditure and non-money metric measures
of inequality in important livelihood parameters like, employment, education, energy, housing, water
and sanitation are presented. These variables were selected from the census data and analyzed in
detail and form the core of the inequality reports. Other variables such as migration or health indicators
like mortality, fertility etc. are analyzed and presented in several monographs by Kenya National Bureau
of Statistics and were therefore left out of this report.
Methodology
Gini-coefficient of inequality
This is the most commonly used measure of inequality. The coefficient varies between ‘0’, which reflects
complete equality and ‘1’ which indicates complete inequality. Graphically, the Gini coefficient can be
easily represented by the area between the Lorenz curve and the line of equality. On the figure below,
the Lorenz curve maps the cumulative income share on the vertical axis against the distribution of the
population on the horizontal axis. The Gini coefficient is calculated as the area (A) divided by the sum
of areas (A and B) i.e. A/(A+B). If A=0 the Gini coefficient becomes 0 which means perfect equality,
whereas if B=0 the Gini coefficient becomes 1 which means complete inequality. Let xi be a point on
the X-axis, and yi a point on the Y-axis, the Gini coefficient formula is:
N
Gini = 1 − ∑ ( xi − xi −1 )( y i + y i −1 ) .
i =1

Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
Most of KNBS surveys were designed to provide statistically reliable, design-based estimates only at
the national, provincial and district levels such as the Kenya Intergraded Household Budget Survey
of 2005/06 (KIHBS). The sheer practical difficulties and cost of implementing and conducting sample
surveys that would provide reliable estimates at levels finer than the district were generally prohibitive,
both in terms of the increased sample size required and in terms of the added burden on providers of
survey data (respondents). However through SAE and using the census and other survey datasets,
accurate small area poverty estimates for 2009 for all the counties are obtainable.
The sample in the 2005/06 KIHBS, which was a representative subset of the population, collected
detailed information regarding consumption expenditures. The survey gives poverty estimate of urban
and rural poverty at the national level, the provincial level and, albeit with less precision, at the district
level. However, the sample sizes of such household surveys preclude estimation of meaningful poverty
measures for smaller areas such as divisions, locations or wards. Data collected through censuses
are sufficiently large to provide representative measurements below the district level such as divisions,
locations and sub-locations. However, this data does not contain the detailed information on consumption
expenditures required to estimate poverty indicators. In small area estimation methodology, the first step
of the analysis involves exploring the relationship between a set of characteristics of households and
the welfare level of the same households, which has detailed information about household expenditure
and consumption. A regression equation is then estimated to explain daily per capita consumption
and expenditure of a household using a number of socio-economic variables such as household size,
education levels, housing characteristics and access to basic services.
While the census does not contain household expenditure data, it does contain these socio-economic
variables. Therefore, it will be possible to statistically impute household expenditures for the census
households by applying the socio-economic variables from the census data on the estimated
relationship based on the survey data. This will give estimates of the welfare level of all households
in the census, which in turn allows for estimation of the proportion of households that are poor and
other poverty measures for relatively small geographic areas. To determine how many people are
poor in each area, the study would then utilize the 2005/06 monetary poverty lines for rural and urban
households respectively. In terms of actual process, the following steps were undertaken:
Cluster Matching: Matching of the KIHBS clusters, which were created using the 1999 Population and
Housing Census Enumeration Areas (EA) to 2009 Population and Housing Census EAs. The purpose
was to trace the KIBHS 2005/06 clusters to the 2009 Enumeration Areas.
Zero Stage: The first step of the analysis involved finding out comparable variables from the survey
(Kenya Integrated Household Budget 2005/06) and the census (Kenya 2009 Population and Housing
Census). This required the use of the survey and census questionnaires as well as their manuals.
First Stage (Consumption Model): This stage involved the use of regression analysis to explore the
relationship between an agreed set of characteristics in the household and the consumption levels of
the same households from the survey data. The regression equation was then used to estimate and
explain daily per capita consumption and expenditure of households using socio-economic variables
such as household size, education levels, housing characteristics and access to basic services, and
other auxiliary variables. While the census did not contain household expenditure data, it did contain
these socio-economic variables.
Second Stage (Simulation): Analysis at this stage involved statistical imputation of household
expenditures for the census households, by applying the socio-economic variables from the census
data on the estimated relationship based on the survey data.
Given that the three main indicators of welfare cannot be determined in a shorter time, an alternative
method that is quick is needed. The alternative approach then in measuring welfare is generally through
the asset index. In measuring the asset index, multivariate statistical procedures such the factor analysis,
discriminate analysis, cluster analysis or the principal component analysis methods are used. Principal
components analysis transforms the original set of variables into a smaller set of linear combinations
that account for most of the variance in the original set. The purpose of PCA is to determine factors (i.e.,
principal components) in order to explain as much of the total variation in the data as possible.
In this project the principal component analysis was utilized in order to generate the asset (wealth)
index for each household in the study area. The PCA can be used as an exploratory tool to investigate
patterns in the data; in identify natural groupings of the population for further analysis and; to reduce
several dimensionalities in the number of known dimensions. In generating this index information from
the datasets such as the tenure status of main dwelling units; roof, wall, and floor materials of main
dwelling; main source of water; means of human waste disposal; cooking and lighting fuels; household
items such radio TV, fridge etc was required. The recent available dataset that contains this information
for the project area is the Kenya Population and Housing Census 2009.
There are four main approaches to handling multivariate data for the construction of the asset index
in surveys and censuses. The first three may be regarded as exploratory techniques leading to index
construction. These are graphical procedures and summary measures. The two popular multivariate
procedures - cluster analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) - are two of the key procedures
that have a useful preliminary role to play in index construction and lastly regression modeling approach.

Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
In the recent past there has been an increasing routine application of PCA to asset data in creating
welfare indices (Gwatkin et al. 2000, Filmer and Pritchett 2001 and McKenzie 2003).
Poverty
The poverty line is a threshold below which people are deemed poor. Statistics summarizing the bottom
of the consumption distribution (i.e. those that fall below the poverty line) are therefore provided. In
2005/06, the poverty line was estimated at Ksh1,562 and Ksh2,913 per adult equivalent1 per month
for rural and urban households respectively. Nationally, 45.2 percent of the population lives below the
poverty line (2009 estimates) down from 46 percent in 2005/06.
Spatial Dimensions
The reason poverty can be considered a spatial issue is two-fold. People of a similar socio-economic
background tend to live in the same areas because the amount of money a person makes usually, but
not always, influences their decision as to where to purchase or rent a home. At the same time, the area
in which a person is born or lives can determine the level of access to opportunities like education and
employment because income and education can influence settlement patterns and also be influenced
by settlement patterns. They can therefore be considered causes and effects of spatial inequality and
poverty.
Employment
Access to jobs is essential for overcoming inequality and reducing poverty. People who cannot access
productive work are unable to generate an income sufficient to cover their basic needs and those of
their families, or to accumulate savings to protect their households from the vicissitudes of the economy.
The unemployed are therefore among the most vulnerable in society and are prone to poverty. Levels
1
This is basically the idea that every person needs different levels of consumption because of their age, gender, height,
weight, etc. and therefore we take this into account to create an adult equivalent based on the average needs of the different
populations
and patterns of employment and wages are also significant in determining degrees of poverty and
inequality. Macroeconomic policy needs to emphasize the need for increasing regular good quality
‘work for pay’ that is covered by basic labour protection. The population and housing census 2009
included questions on labour and employment for the population aged 15-64.
The census, not being a labour survey, only had few categories of occupation which included work
for pay, family business, family agricultural holdings, intern/volunteer, retired/home maker, full time
student, incapacitated and no work. The tabulation was nested with education- for none, primary and
secondary level.
Education
Education is typically seen as a means of improving people’s welfare. Studies indicate that inequality
declines as the average level of educational attainment increases, with secondary education producing
the greatest payoff, especially for women (Cornia and Court, 2001). There is considerable evidence
that even in settings where people are deprived of other essential services like sanitation or clean
water, children of educated mothers have much better prospects of survival than do the children of
uneducated mothers. Education is therefore typically viewed as a powerful factor in leveling the field of
opportunity as it provides individuals with the capacity to obtain a higher income and standard of living.
By learning to read and write and acquiring technical or professional skills, people increase their chances
of obtaining decent, better-paying jobs. Education however can also represent a medium through
which the worst forms of social stratification and segmentation are created. Inequalities in quality and
access to education often translate into differentials in employment, occupation, income, residence and
social class. These disparities are prevalent and tend to be determined by socio-economic and family
background. Because such disparities are typically transmitted from generation to generation, access
to educational and employment opportunities are to a certain degree inherited, with segments of the
population systematically suffering exclusion. The importance of equal access to a well-functioning
education system, particularly in relation to reducing inequalities, cannot be overemphasized.
Water
According to UNICEF (2008), over 1.1 billion people lack access to an improved water source and over
three million people, mostly children, die annually from water-related diseases. Water quality refers
to the basic and physical characteristics of water that determines its suitability for life or for human
uses. The quality of water has tremendous effects on human health both in the short term and in the
long term. As indicated in this report, slightly over half of Kenya’s population has access to improved
sources of water.
Sanitation
Sanitation refers to the principles and practices relating to the collection, removal or disposal of human
excreta, household waste, water and refuse as they impact upon people and the environment. Decent
sanitation includes appropriate hygiene awareness and behavior as well as acceptable, affordable and
sustainable sanitation services which is crucial for the health and wellbeing of people. Lack of access
to safe human waste disposal facilities leads to higher costs to the community through pollution of
7
Exploring Kenya’s Inequality
rivers, ground water and higher incidence of air and water borne diseases. Other costs include reduced
incomes as a result of disease and lower educational outcomes.
Nationally, 61 percent of the population has access to improved methods of waste disposal. A sizeable
population i.e. 39 percent of the population is disadvantaged. Investments made in the provision of
safe water supplies need to be commensurate with investments in safe waste disposal and hygiene
promotion to have significant impact.

Baringo County has a child rich population structure where 0-14 year olds constitute 49% of the total population.
This is due to high fertility rates among women as demonstrated by the percentage household size of 4-6 at 38%.
Employment
The 2009 population and housing census covered in brief the labour status as tabulated below. The main variable
of interest for inequality discussed in the text is work for pay by level of education. The other variables, notably
family business, family agricultural holdings, intern/volunteer, retired/homemaker, fulltime student, incapacitated
and no work are tabulated and presented in the annex table 1.3 up to ward level.

In Baringo County, 5% with no formal education, 14% with primary education and 26%with a secondary level of
education or above are working for pay. Work for pay is highest in Nairobi at 49%, which is almost twice the level
of work for pay in Baringo for those with a secondary level of education or above.
Gini Coefficient
In this report, the Gini index measures the extent to which the distribution of consumption expenditure among
individuals or households within an economy deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A Gini index of ‘0’
represents perfect equality, while an index of ‘1’ implies perfect inequality. Baringo County’s Gini index is 0.356
compared with Turkana County, which has the least inequality nationally (0.283).
Education
In Baringo County, 16 percent of residents have a secondary level of education or above. Baringo Central is the
constituency with the highest share of residents with a secondary level of education or above at 27%. This is nine
times Tiaty constituency, which has the lowest share of residents with a secondary level of education or above.
Baringo Central constituency is therefore 11 percentage points above the county average. Kapropita ward has
the highest share of residents with a secondary level of education or above at 34%. This is 34 percentage points
above Silale ward, which has the lowest share of residents with a secondary level of education or above. Kapro-
pita ward is 18percentage points above the county average.
The proportion of Baringo County residents who only have a primary education stands at 48%.Baringo North
constituency has the highest share of residents with a primary education only at 60%. This is four times Tiaty
constituency, which has the lowest share of residents with a primary education. Baringo North constituency is 12
percentage points above the county average. Lembus ward has the highest share of residents with primary ed-

only. Lembus ward is 16 percentage points above the county average.
The share of Baringo County residents with no formal education is at 36%.Tiaty constituency has the highest
share of residents with no formal education at 82%. This is five times the number in Baringo Central constituen-
cy, which has the lowest share of residents with no formal education. Tiaty constituency is 46 percentage points
