About these numbers
From the National Population and Housing Census 2024. Shares are worked out from UBOS’s counts for Madi-Okollo. The West Nile and Uganda figures come from summed counts, not averages. “Highest of 146” ranks show where Madi-Okollo sits among all districts and cities, from highest value down. For some indicators, a high rank is good news; for others it isn’t.
Note: UBOS's mobile phone ownership table currently repeats the internet-use figures, so phone ownership is left out.
