Ethiopia+Rural Areas
I researched the facts about Ethiopia and its urban/rural population. Ethiopia has a very low percentage of people living in urban area (16 percent). The other people live on farms and other rural areas. The adult literacy rate is 9.4 percent, which is below the average for Africa. The net primary school enrollment ratio is also below average. This is caused by not a lot of people living in urban areas where education can be provided. Ethiopia also lacks people that work in the health systems. They only have 93 dentists and less than 2000 physicians for the whole country. All of their statistics for health workers are a lot below the average line in Africa.
