Urban  population  is  the  population  of  the  territorial  units  which  is
           designated as urban areas by the State (wards, town).

                Rural  population  is  the  population  of  the  territorial  units  which  is
           designated as rural areas by the State (communes).

                Population density is the average population per square kilometer of the
           territory

                Population density is calculated by dividing the population (at time point or
           average population) of a certain residential area to the area of that territory.

                Population  density  can  be  calculated  for  the  entire  country  or  region
           (rural, urban, socio-economic region), for each province, district, commune, etc.
           in order to reflect the population distribution by geography at a given time.

                Formula:
                            Population density    =       Population

                Number of households

                Household is a social unit, comprising either one person living alone or a
           group of people living in the same dwelling and sharing meals  together. For
           households  with  2  persons  or  over,  its  members  may  or  may  not  share  a
           common budget; or be related by blood or not; or in combination of both.

                Sex ratio of the population reflects number of males per 100 females.
           Sex ratio of the population is determined by the following formula:


                        Sex ratio of the   =      Total of males      × 100
                          population             Total of females

                Crude birth rate

                Crude  birth  rate  indicates  that  for  every  1,000  people,  how  many  live
           births are in the reference period.
