Abstract/ Overview
CTurkana County is situated in the North Western part of Kenya. The County is administratively divided into 7 sub-counties, 30 wards, 56 locations that are further subdivided into 156 sub-locations. The settlement patterns in the county are determined by various factors such as climate, soil fertility and infrastructure. The Turkana people are traditionally pastoralists and the only notable migration pattern is rural to rural movement in the form of nomadism. Rainfall in the county follows a fairly erratic pattern varying significantly both over time and space. The county, however, experiences both short and long rains. The driest months are January, February and September. The long rains season falls between the months of April to July. Short rains occur during the months of October, November and December. The county population during the Kenya Population and Housing Census of 2009 stood at 855,399. The county population average growth rate is 6.4% per annum. This putsthe total county population in 2012 at 1,036,586 and the figure is projected to increase to 1,256,152 people in 2015 and to 1,427,797 by 2017 assuming constant mortality and fertility rates.
