The places we live affect our health status and the choices and opportunities we have (or do not have) to lead fulfilling lives. Over the past ten years, the African Population & Health Research Centre (APHRC) has led pioneering work in highlighting some of the major health and livelihood challenges associated with rapid urbanization in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In 2002, the Centre established the first longitudinal platform in urban Africa in the city of Nairobi in Kenya. The platform known as the Nairobi Urban Health and Demographic Surveillance System collects data on two informal settlements - Korogocho and Viwandani - in Nairobi City every four months on issues ranging from household dynamics to fertility and mortality, migration and livelihood as well as on causes of death, using a verbal autopsy technique. The dataset provided here contains key demographic and health indicators extracted from the longitudinal database. Researchers interested in accessing the micro-data can look at our data access policy and contact us.

Three rounds in a year
This dataset is related to the whole demographic surveillance area population. The number of respondents has varied over the last 8 years (2002-2010), with variations being observed at both household level and at Individual level. As at 31st December,2010 the Nairobi HDSS covered 67,000 persons living in 28,000 households distributed across two informal settlements(Korogocho and Viwandani). The variations can be seen in the attached document: NUHDSS Indicators 2003-2010
