Kajiado County Integrated Development Plan 2023-2027
Kajiado County had a total population of 1,117,840, where female population accounted for 50.1 percent while the male population was 49.8 respectively (The Kenya Population and Housing Census of 2019). The total intersex population was only 38 persons. This represents 62.6 percent population increase in the last ten (10) years. Rural-Urban migration is a major factor contributing to rapid urbanization and urban growth experienced in the county. This has contributed to the rise in multiethnic representation in the major urban centers, with the Maasai community being dominant in the rural areas.
The county has five (5) sub-counties and twenty-five wards with the headquarters at Kajiado Town. It is primarily semi-arid with livestock rearing and crop growing as the main economic activities. Livestock rearing is mainly practiced through nomadic pastoralism in the rural areas. The agriculture and livestock sector employs about 75 percent of the total population and provides nearly 40 percent of the county’s food requirements. According to the ASDSP Baseline report of 2014 (GoK, 2014), at least 78 percent of households were employed and derived their income from on-farm (crop, livestock sales and fishing activities). Approximately 1,055ha of land is cultivated with food crops such as maize, sorghum, finger millet, beans, cowpeas, green grams, tomatoes, bulb onions amongst others.

Kajiado County Integrated Development Plan 2013-2017
One of the most significant changes introduced to Kenya's governance framework under the
constitution 2010 dispensation is the creation of 47 county governments with responsibilities
in agriculture, health, trade, roads, county planning and other functions. Under the
Constitution, the National and County Governments are distinct but interdependent. The
County government is composed of the Governor, County Executive Committee and County
Assembly. The County Government responsibilities and functions are specifically spelt out
under the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution. The County Executive Committee is
expected to supervise the administration and delivery of services to citizens as well as
conceptualize and implement policies. The County Assembly is a legislative organ and will
play an oversight role on all county public institutions including the urban areas and cities.
The Constitution of Kenya 2010, County Government Act 2012, Kenya Vision 2030 and its
Second Medium Term Plan (2013-2017) provide the foundation for the preparation of the
first County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs) for all the 47 counties in the Republic of
Kenya. The CIDP is meant to assist the County Governments in prioritization of local socioeconomic development issues. It provides the baseline information which will guide the
execution of this function.
