Urbanization rates show the the development of a nation because it shows how much of the population now live in cities which is synonymous with production and growth as opposed to rural areas which are associated with technological backwardness and agricultural overdependence.

The percentage of PNG's urban population can be calculated by the formula:

= 12.8%
