Foreword


Since independence in 1990, Namibia has adhered to international requirements by conducting Population and Housing Censuses every 10 years. The Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA), which took over the function of the for-mer Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), has provided timely and high quality statistics to support the Governments
need to make results-based decisions, for policy formulation and for monitoring development programmes. In ad-
dition, the statistics generated by the NSA have been useful to the public and private sectors, training and research
institutions, non-governmental organizations, the media and the general public. Among others, the statistical products
include results from Population and Housing Censuses, demographic and health surveys, labour force surveys, and
household income and expenditure surveys.


Population and Housing Censuses are the main source for demographic and socio-economic statistics in any country.
The latest, undertaken in August 2011, was the most extensive census to be conducted in Namibia. Results of this
census will provide information on the size, distribution, composition and other social and economic characteristics of
the population as well as on household and housing amenities.


This is the second of a series of reports to be released on the 2011 census. The first report provided provisional (or
interim) results and was released in April 2012 to disseminate data on the distribution of the population by sex and
number of households at national, urban/rural, regional and constituency levels.


This Main Report presents the census results in much more detail. The results are the outcome of analyses and tabula-
tions undertaken after the successful completion of data processing. It is therefore possible that some of the figures
given in this Main Report differ slightly from those in the preliminary report due to errors that arose during the manual
compilations done early in 2012.


More detailed and targeted analyses of the census data will be undertaken in the next eight months. The NSA will
also produce the Census Atlas which will provide information on the spatial distribution of people at all administrative
levels.


The 2011 census was a complex, expensive and time consuming undertaking. To ensure the successful implementation
of the census, support was received from several organizations and individuals. Most funding was provided by the Gov-
ernment of the Republic of Namibia but a number of organizations also provided technical or financial support. We are
therefore grateful to everyone who contributed to ensuring that the 2011 census was a success. In particular, we thank
UNFPA, the Government of the United States of America through USAID and Statistics South Africa for their technical
support to ensure the timely completion of census activities. We also thank the census inter-agency technical commit-
tee, line ministries and government and private institutions, the regions, field staff and the general public for their sup-
port, all of which contributed to the success of the 2011 Population & Housing Census. The census results can only be
of value if they are used as evidence for making decisions and planning development, including business investments.
I therefore hope that users will find the contents of this report useful in their planning for national development. On
our part, we pledge to ensure the ready availability of all information required by all our users.

NAMIBIA 2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS MAIN REPORT


The report presents the main results of the 2011 Namibia Population and Housing Census, which was undertaken in August 2011. The report provides a wide range of data on the characteristics of the population and on house-hold and housing conditions. The population characteristics include spatial distribution, age and sex composition,
marital status, education, literacy, economic activity, orphanhood and disability. The household and housing conditions
include household size, housing amenities, ownership and the quality of housing.

This Main Report provides results after the processing and analysis of data at national, urban, rural and regional levels.
Information for constituencies will be given in regional level analytical reports. Separate analytical reports will also be
prepared for specific topics, including.


" Fertility and Marital status
" Household and Housing conditions
" Mortality
" Gender dimensions
" Education and Literacy
" Spatial distribution and Urbanization
" Migration
" Children and Youth
" Ageing population and the elderly
" People with disabilities


For further individual analysis and research work, the NSA will make available data in a variety of formats, including:
" Statistical tables
" Regional level reports
" Thematic maps
" Census database
" Up-dated master frame
" Enumeration area maps

23NAMIBIA 2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS MAIN REPORT


The 2011 Population and Housing Census is the third national Census to be conducted in Namibia after indepen-dence. The first was conducted 1991 followed by the 2001 Census. Namibia is therefore one of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa that has participated in the 2010 Round of Censuses and followed the international best prac-
tice of conducting decennial Censuses, each of which attempts to count and enumerate every person and household
in a country every ten years. Surveys, by contrast, collect data from samples of people and/or households.


Censuses provide reliable and critical data on the socio-economic and demographic status of any country. In Namibia,
Census data has provided crucial information for development planning and programme implementation. Specifically,
the information has assisted in setting benchmarks, formulating policy and the evaluation and monitoring of national
development programmes including NDP4, Vision 2030 and several sector programmes. The information has also been
used to update the national sampling frame which is used to select samples for household-based surveys, including la-
bour force surveys, demographic and health surveys, household income and expenditure surveys. In addition, Census
information will be used to guide the demarcation of Namibias administrative boundaries where necessary.


At the international level, Census information has been used extensively in monitoring progress towards Namibias
achievement of international targets, particularly the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).


1.1The2011PopulationandHousingCensus


The latest and most comprehensive Census was conducted in August 2011. Preparations for the Census started in the
2007/2008 financial year under the auspices of the then Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) which was later transformed
into the Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA). The NSA was established under the Statistics Act No. 9 of 2011, with the legal
mandate and authority to conduct population Censuses every 10 years.


The Census was implemented in three broad phases; pre-enumeration, enumeration and post enumeration.


During the first pre-enumeration phase, activities accomplished including the preparation of a project document, es-
tablishing Census management and technical committees, and establishing the Census cartography unit which demar-
cated the Enumeration Areas (EAs). Other activities included the development of Census instruments and tools, such
as the questionnaires, manuals and field control forms.


Field staff were recruited, trained and deployed during the initial stages of the enumeration phase. The actual enu-
meration exercise was undertaken over a period of about three weeks from 28 August to 15 September 2011, while 28
August 2011 was marked as the reference period or Census Day.


The post-enumeration phase started with the sending of completed questionnaires to Head Office and the preparation
of summaries for the preliminary report, which was published in April 2012. Processing of the Census data began with
manual editing and coding, which focused on the household identification section and un-coded parts of the question-
naire. This was followed by the capturing of data through scanning. Finally, the data were verified and errors corrected
where necessary. This took longer than planned due to inadequate technical skills.


1.2 Data quality


Great efforts were made to check and ensure that the Census data was of high quality to enhance its credibility and in-
crease its usage. Various quality controls were implemented to ensure relevance, timeliness, accuracy, coherence and
proper data interpretation. Other activities undertaken to enhance quality included the demarcation of the country
into small enumeration areas to ensure comprehensive coverage; the development of structured Census question-
naires after consultation with government ministries, university expertise and international partners; the preparation
of detailed supervisors and enumerators instruction manuals to guide field staff during enumeration; the undertaking
of comprehensive publicity and advocacy programmes to ensure full Government support and cooperation from the
general public; the testing of questionnaires and other procedures; the provision of adequate training and undertaking
of intensive supervision using four supervisory layers; the editing of questionnaires at field level; establishing proper
mechanisms which ensured that all completed questionnaires were properly accounted for; ensuring intensive verifi-
cation, validating all information and error corrections; and developing capacity in data processing with support from
the international community.

1.3Organizationofthereport


The report is divided into seven main chapters including the foreword, preface and several annexes. Chapter 1 provides
an introduction which includes the background to Censuses, the 2011 Census and data quality and report organization.
Chapter 2 provides information on population size, population structure and composition, sex ratios and population
density. Chapter 3 gives information on marital status, citizenship and registration of births. Chapter 4 provides infor-
mation on population trends, with a focus on population growth, urbanization, fertility and migration, and household
deaths. Chapter 5 addresses socio-economic characteristics of the population and mainly covers Information Com-
munication Technology (ICT), literacy, education, disability, orphanhood and economic activity. Chapter 6 provides in-
formation on household characteristics including household size, household composition, main sources of income for
the household, asset ownership, main language spoken at household level and agricultural activity. Chapter 7 provides
information on housing characteristics and focuses on types of housing unit, tenure status, construction materials,
water supply and sanitation as well as sources of energy for the household.


There are three annexes: a glossary of Census terms, Enumeration Area Map and detailed tables.

CHAPTER 2: POPULATION STRUCTURE, COMPOSITION AND DENSITY


Chapter 2: Populati on Structure, Compositi on And Density


This chapter provides informati on on populati on size, structure, compositi on and density. It also provides
analyses of populati on trends between the 1991, 2001 and 2011 Census years.


2.1Populationsize


Overall, the populati on has grown steadily since 1921 rising from under one quarter of a million in 1921
through to 1.8 million in 2001 and 2.1 million in 2011. Figure 2.1.1 presents absolute fi gures for this
period.


The total populati on enumerated in Namibian during the 2011 Census was 2,113,077 of which 903,434
people were in urban and another 1,209,643 people in rural areas. The total populati on in private house-
holds was 2,064,489, while there were 27,402 people in insti tuti ons (hostels, hospitals etc) and 21,186
people in a special populati on category (homeless, travellers, prisoners, fi shermen etc.).

Figure 2.1.2 gives populati on size by urban and rural areas for all Census years, and shows that the total
Namibian populati on increased from 1.4 million in 1991, to 1.8 million in 2001 and 2.1 million people
in 2011.

Table 2.1.2 shows the proportion of the population living in rural and urban areas as well as in the 13
regions during each of the three census years.


The Khomas region accommodates over 16% of the total population or 342,141, up from 12% 20 years
ago, followed by both Omusati and Ohangwena with almost 12% (243,166 and 245,446 respectively) of
all people in 2011. Only 3% of the population (71,233) lived in the Omaheke region which has not seen
much of a change in its relative share over the past two decades. Other regions with relatively small
changes include Kunene, Oshikoto and Otjozondjupa. As stated before, the share of the population in
certain regions, especially those with large rural populations, has declined whereas populations have
increased in regions with rapid urbanisation, such as Khomas and Erongo


Table 2.1.1 shows that the urban population grew by 49.7% between 2001 and 2011, while the rural
population decreased by 1.4% over the same period. These trends illustrate the high rates of rural-urban
migration in Namibia. Erongo had the highest population increase of 40% followed by Khomas with 37%
between 2001 and 2011. Omahekes population grew the least, by only 4.7% during the same period.
The below average growth of the population in the central northern regions, Omaheke and Otjozon-
djupa regions can be explained by migration to others region.

This sub-section provides information on the composition of the population in terms of gender and age,
which are important demographic parameters.


2.2.1 Age groups
The age distribution of the population by broad age groups and area is presented in Table 2.2.1. Namibia
has a relatively young population, with close to 37% of the whole population being less than 15 years of
age. The share of young people below the age of 15 years in rural areas is higher than in urban (44% and
30%, respectively). Likewise, the proportion of elderly people (above the age of 60 years) in rural areas is
more than double that in urban areas (9.1% compared to 4.3%). These characteristics are a consequence
of migration by working age people to urban areas.

Table 2.2.1.1 Median age by sex and area


2.2.1.1 Median age


Median age is used as an indicator to determine whether the population is young, old or intermediate. Thus, a
country is considered young when it has median age of less than 20 years, while countries with medians of 30
years and above is old. Populations with median ages between 20 and 29 are referred to as intermediate. Namibia
has a median age of 21 years, and is therefore rather young. The figure of 21 years means that half the popula-
tion is less than 21 years, and the other half older than 21 years. Table 2.2.1.1 provides information on median age
by sex, and in urban and rural areas. The median age for urban area is 24 years which is higher compared to the
median age of 18 years in rural areas. Again, this is due to the migration of the working age population to urban
areas. Regions with large rural populations have rather low and young median ages, such as Kavango, Ohangwena
and Omusati.

2.2.1.2Sexcomposition


The 2011 Census collected information on sex. Table 2.2.1.2 gives the population distribution by sex, urban, rural
and region.


The results show that the female population continues to be higher than the male population (1,091,165 females
and 1,021,912 males), representing 51.5% of the total population compared to 48.4% for males. There were no
major differences between females and males in urban and rural areas. Some regions are characterised by greater
dominances of females compared to the national average. These are in particular the north-central regions and the
Kavango region where the proportion of females ranges from 52% to 55%. This phenomenon can be explained by
the migration of job-seeking men to other regions. As a result, there are more males than females in most central
and southern regions of Namibia.

Table2.2.1.2Populationandpercentagedistributionbysexandarea


2.2.1.3Sexratio


Sex ratio is another measure of sex composition and is the proportion of males per 100 females in a given popula-
tion.


Table 2.2.1.3 provides the sex ratio by urban and rural areas and by regions. The sex ratio for Namibia is 94 which
means that there are on average 94 men for every 100 women in Namibia. This is not very different from sex ratios
found in other SADC countries. For example, the sex ratio for South Africa was also 94 in 2011, while for Zambia
was 96 in 20101 . The trend over the census years from 103 in 1991, to 99 in 2001 and 95 in 2011 indicates a
strong decline in the sex ratio in urban areas as more and more females have also migrated to towns during the last
decade. For example, the ratio dropped from 111 men per 100 women in 1991 to 98 men per 100 women in 2011
in the Khomas Region. The migration of women to urban areas has also resulted in the sex ratio in urban and rural
areas being virtually the same.

2.3PopulationDensity


Population density is the average number of people per square kilometre. Thus, it shows the relationship
between a given population and the size of the country. Population densities calculated for all regions are
given in Table 2.3.1 below.


The population density of Namibia has grown over the years from 1.7 in 1991 to 2.2 in 2001 and to 2.6
people per square kilometre in 2011 as a result of the growth of the population.


At a regional level, Ohangwena and Oshana are the most densely populated regions with 22.9 and 20.4
people per square kilometres, respectively. On the other hand, Karas is the least densely populated
region with a density of 0.5 people per square kilometre followed by Hardap (0.7) and Kunene and Oma-
heke (both 0.8).

The chapter provides informati on on demographic characteristi cs and focuses on marital status, citi zen-
ship and status of birth registrati on.


3.1 Marital status
During the census, all people were asked to state their marital status in one of the following categories:
never married, married with certi fi cate, married traditi onally, consensual union, divorced/separated and
widowed. For internati onal comparisons the analysis focuses only the populati on aged 15 years and
above although we acknowledge that there are cases of child marriage in Namibia.


Table 3.1.1 shows that approximately 59% of populati on aged 15 years or older were never married.
About 35% was married with certi fi cates, traditi onally married or lived in a consensual union. The high
number of people that were never married can be explained by the young populati on. More men (62.5%)
than women (55.9%) were never married, partly as a result of the skewed sex rati o analysed above. Ap-
proximately 8% of couples were in consensual unions. The proporti on of the populati on divorced, wid-
owed and separated decreased slightly from 7% in 2001 to 6% in 2011. There were, however, relati vely
more females who were divorced, widowed or separated than males.

3.2Citizenship


The census asked all people to state their country of citizenship, from which the number of Namibians
and non-Namibians is reported in Table 3.2.1. The Table shows that the great majority of people enu-
merated (96.8%) were Namibians. Rather more men were non-Namibians than women.


Table3.2.1Populationdistributionbysexandcitizenship


Table3.2.2Non-citizenspopulationbysexandcountryoforigin


Table 3.2.2 shows the distribution of non-Namibians by selected countries of origin, but it only lists coun-
tries of origin from which citizens constitute a substantial share of the total non-Namibian population.


Angolan nationals represented the highest proportion of foreigners residing in Namibia (28.9%). This is
a sharp decline from 2001 when 42.8% of foreigners were Angolan nationals. The decrease can be ex-
plained by the end of the Angolan civil war which led to the return of many of its citizens. Other Angolan
nationals might have since acquired Namibian citizenship. The proportion of Angolan men (30.7%) was
higher than women (26.6%). Zambians and South Africans constituted 11.2% and 8.6% of foreign nation-
als in Namibia.


3.3NamibianBirthRegistration


The Census provides information on whether the respondent was in possession of a Namibian birth reg-
istration certificate or not. The results are presented in Table 3.3.1. Birth certificates are needed to access
social services, such as social grants and educational services.


The Table shows that a significant proportion (about 92%) of the population possessed birth certificates.
At regional level, the highest proportion of people with birth certificates was in Karas, (97.8%) and Hardap
(97%). Kavango region had the lowest proportion of 78% of people with birth certificates.

Table4.1.1Intercensalpopulationincreaseandannualgrowthrates(1991-2001)and(2001-2011)byarea


This chapter analyses population trends, including changes in population growth, urbanization, sex ra-
tios, household deaths and fertility.


4.1Populationgrowth
The population of Namibia has been growing steadily since the first post-independence census of 1991.
Table 4.1.1 provides population increase and annual growth rates between 1991 and 2011.
The intercensal population growth rate between 2001 and 2011 was 1.4% compared to 2.6% between
1991 2001. The annual growth rate for urban areas was 4.0%, which is much higher than the national
rate. There was however, a negative growth rate (- 0.1%) in rural areas due to high migration to urban
areas.


The highest growth rates are recorded for Erongo (3.4%) and Khomas (3.1% compared to 1.9% in the
period 1991-2001). Conversely, Omaheke had the lowest growth rate of only 0.5% compared to 2.5% in
the period 1991-2001.

4.2Urbanization


The level of urbanization indicates the relative number of inhabitants in urban areas compared to rural
areas. Table 4.2.1 shows the urban and rural population for all the Census years 1991, 2001 and 2011.
Urbanisation increased from 28% in 1991 to 43% in 2011.

Table4.2.1UrbanizationlevelinNamibiabyCensusyearandarea


Changes in the populations of all urban areas between 2001 and 2011 are reported in Table 4.2.2.
Overall, the total urban population of the country grew by 49.6%. The highest growth was in Outapi and
Ondangwa where the populations more than doubled or grew by over 100%. On the other hand, the
populations of Oranjemund and Luderitz areas decreased by 5.7 and 12.2, respectively.


Rates of change could not be estimated for towns that had not yet been declared as urban areas in
2001. Examples are Rosh Pinah, Aranos and Helao Nafidi. The five largest towns and cities in Namibia
were Windhoek (325,858 people), Rundu (63,431), Walvis Bay (62,096), Swakopmund (44,725) and
Oshakati (36,541 people).

4.3Fertility


The census collected information on live births from all women aged 12 - 64 years. Generally, fertility
indicators measure the frequency of child bearing in a given population. This section presents four in-
dicators of fertility, namely: Crude Birth Rate (CBR), Age Specific Fertility Rates (ASFR), Total Fertility
Rate (TFR), and Age at first birth for women aged 12 49 years, irrespective of their marital status or
whether they have borne any child.


4.3.1 Crude Birth Rate


The Crude Birth Rate (CBR) is the number of live births per 1,000 of the total female and male population
per year. In 2011, there were 62,046 children born during the 12-months prior to the census date, which
gives the reported or unadjusted CBR of 29.4 births per 1,000 people.


Table 4.3.1 below indicates that the CBR was slightly higher in urban areas (29.9) than in rural areas
(29.0). At the regional level, Kavango had the highest CBR of 35.2 births per 1,000 population, followed
by Kunene and Caprivi with 33.7 and 32.3, respectively. The regions with the lowest CBRs were Karas
(26.5) and Omusati (26.4).

4.3.2AgeSpecificFertilityRate


Age specifi c ferti lity rate (ASFR) is the average number of births per woman in a specifi c age group for all
women in that age group. Data reported in Figure 4.3.2 shows that ferti lity starts early and extends over
a broad period. There were about 50 live births for every 1,000 women age 12-14. In additi on, child-bear-
ing peaks in the 2024 year age group and declines thereaft er to less than 0.1 aft er the age of 44 years.


4.3.3TotalFertilityRate


Total Ferti lity Rate (TFR) is the average total number of children that would be born to a woman by the
ti me she ended child-bearing age if she were to pass through all her child-bearing years. Table 4.3.3
shows that the unadjusted TFR dropped by almost 50% to 3.6 children per woman compared to 4.1 chil-
dren in 2001 and 6.1 children in 1991. The TFR in urban areas was lower (3.0) than in rural areas (4.3),
and there were even greater diff erences between regions, for example between 2.8 average children per
woman in Khomas and 4.9 average children per woman in Kunene. TFR decreased in all regions between
2001 and 2011, with the excepti on of slight increases in Caprivi and Kunene.

4.3.4 Age at First Birth


Age at first birth influences the total number of births that a woman might have in her life, which has an
impact on the size, composition, and future growth of the population.


Table 4.3.4 shows the average age of mothers at their first birth was 21 years of age in Namibia with no
difference between rural and urban areas. However, there are regional differences. Mothers in Kavango
give birth for the first time at the early age of 19 years while those in Omusati waited, on average, until
the age of 23 years. These average figures obscure the fact that there are also many teenage pregnan-
cies, in particular in the Kavango region.

Figure4.4.1Distributionofreporteddeathsinthelast12monthsbysexandarea


4.4 Deaths in the household


Informati on on deaths in the last 12 months (September 2010 to August 2011) was collected from all
households during the Census.


Usually, mortality indicators are based on data from civil registrati on, but in Namibia this coverage is incomplete.
However, it must also be acknowledged that informati on from surveys and Censuses may be under-reported, which
can lead to underesti mates of the level of mortality.


4.4.1 Reported deaths


Figure 4.4.1 shows the number of reported deaths in the last twelve months by sex, urban and rural. A higher pro-
porti on of all deaths was recorded for males (55%) than females (45%). There were similar diff erences in urban and
rural areas, where about 55% of all deaths involved males.


4.4.2 Crude Death Rate


Crude Death Rate (CDR) is defi ned as the number of deaths that occurred in a given calendar year per
1,000 people in the populati on.


Table 4.4.2 shows that a total of 22,668 deaths occurred during the last 12 months prior to the Census,
which gives a CDR of 10.7 per 1,000 for the country as a whole. This table also shows that more deaths
were reported in rural areas (12.2 deaths per 1,000) than the 8.6 deaths per 1,000 urban people. The
highest death rates were in Kavango (14.6), Hardap (13.0), Kunene (12.6) and Ohangwena (12.5), which
were about double the lowest rate in Khomas (6.9 deaths per 1,000 people per year).

Migration is analysed according to place of enumeration, place of usual residence and place of birth. Ta-
ble 4.5 provides the distribution of the population by place of enumeration and place of usual residence.
The table shows that more than 2% of the population that was enumerated in regions such as Erongo,
Khomas, Karas, Kunene, Oshana, Oshikoto and Otjozondjupa normally reside elsewhere. By contrast, 4%
and 2.6% of the population who usually live in Ohangwena and Omusati, respectively, were enumerated
elsewhere.

4.5.1LongtermMigration


Table 4.5.1 provides information on the movement of people between their place of birth and places of
usual residence.


Khomas region and Erongo region have experienced high rates of in-migration, as more than 40% of resi-
dents in these regions were born elsewhere. There have also been high rates of migration into Karas. On
the other hand, Ohangwena and Omusati have had high percentages of out-migration, with more than
20% of the people born in these regions usually living elsewhere.


4.5.2Shorttermmigration


Table 4.5.2 shows that Caprivi region lost a significant number or about 5,5% of its people to other re-
gions between 2010 and 2011. Khomas, Erongo and Karas gained more people from other regions over
the same period.

47NAMIBIA 2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS MAIN REPORT


The chapter deals with socio-economic characteristics of the population and the information discussed
in this chapter is crucial for decision making, planning and monitoring of development programmes and
policies. The sub-topics discussed include: Information Communication Technology (ICT), Early Child-
hood Development (ECD), Education and Literacy, Disability and Labour Force.


5.1InformationandCommunicationTechnology(ICT)


Information on the usage or access to ICT facilities was collected from people aged three years and
above. The information included access to information and communication technology such as radio,
television, computer, cell phone, telephone (fixed line), newspaper (daily/weekly) and internet (daily/
weekly).


The table below shows that the majority (69%) of Namibians have access to radio, with slightly greater
access in urban (74%) than rural (65%) areas. Cell phones are much more widespread across the country
than fixed line telephones, access to cell phones being about eight times greater. However, access to
other modern information and communication technology such as computers and internet is fairly lim-
ited, particularly so in rural areas.


Table5.1.1Percentofpopulationaged3yearsandabovewhohaveaccesstoICTbytypeofserviceoruse
and area


5.2EarlyChildhoodDevelopment(ECD)


Respondents were asked to state whether children aged 0-4 years attended any type of Early Childhood
Development (ECD) services, such as Educare (daycare, crèche, kindergarten) and pre-primary school.


The 2011 census counted a total of 283,501 children aged 0-4 years and out of this number about 13%
were attending ECD programmes country wide. However, access in urban areas was much better, result-
ing in almost one out of five children attending ECD facilities, compared to one out of ten children in
rural areas. Slightly more girls than boys were enrolled in ECD programmes in both rural and urban areas.


At a regional level, a much higher proportion of children attended ECD programmes in Erongo (24.2%)
and Khomas (22.9%) than in Hardap, Kunene and Omaheke, where attendance was about 7%.

Table 5.2.2 shows the population aged 0-4 years attending ECD by type in urban and rural areas. Atten-
dance in Edu- care programmes was higher (59.6%) than in pre-primary school (40.4%). Only children in
the Omaheke region attended more pre-primary classes than Edu -care programmes.


5.3EducationandLiteracy


Information on literacy and education is vital for many purposes, including the need for Government to
articulate and monitor national development programs and goals. During the census, specific informa-
tion on education and literacy was collected from all people aged 5 years and above.


5.3.1 Literacy
Literacy can be defined as the ability to read and write with understanding in any language. Therefore,
all people aged 5 years and above were asked whether they can read and write in any language with
understanding, but no test was administered to determine the level of literacy.


85% of


persons aged


5 years and


above were


literate

Table5.3.1.2Literateadultpopulationaged15yearsandabovebysex,andarea


Table 5.3.1.2 provides information on literacy rates for the population aged 15 years and above, usually
referred to as the adult population. This table shows that national adult literacy rate was 89%, with no
major difference between males and females. The adult literacy rate in urban areas stood at 96% com-
pared to 83% in rural areas. Furthermore, the table shows that adult literacy was highest in Khomas
(97.4%) and lowest in Kunene (64.9%).


Table 5.3.1.3 indicates that the literacy rate for youth (15-24 years) in Namibia was 94%, with higher
proportions of women (95.3%) than men (92.5%) being literate. The rate was again higher in urban (98%)
than rural areas (92%). The literacy rate for young women in rural areas is 2.6 percentage points higher
than men, while in urban areas the literacy rates were almost the same.


The literacy rate in Namibia for the population 5 years and above was 85.3%. The rate was marginally
higher for men (85.4%) than for women (85.1%). Furthermore, literacy rates were higher in urban (93%)
than in rural (79%) areas. Khomas had the highest rate of 95% while Kunene had the lowest (59.4%). The
largest differences between female and male literacy rates were found in Caprivi and Kavango where the
male literacy rate exceeds the female literacy rate by 3.4 and 3.7 percentage points, respectively. In the
Oshikoto region the literacy rate for women was also slightly higher than for men.

Formal educati on can be defi ned as full-ti me att endance at any regular educati onal insti tuti on, public or
private, for systemati c instructi on.


The categories of formal educati on used during the census were: pre-primary, primary schools, second-
ary or high schools, technical schools, agricultural insti tuti ons, teacher training colleges, polytechnics and
universiti es.


5.3.2.1SchoolAttendance


Figure 5.3.2.1 shows that the overwhelming majority of those people who indicated that they had never
att ended school resides in rural areas (17.6%) compared to urban (7.0%) areas. This also shows that
school att endance is higher in urban than rural areas and/or that many more urban residents have been
to school than those who remain in rural areas. By contrast, a much greater proporti on (1.1%) of people
enrolled in adult educati on programmes are in rural than urban areas (0.6%).

Table 5.3.2.3 provides school enrolment rates in urban and rural areas, showing that enrolment rates
were slightly higher in rural than urban areas: 64% compared to 62% respecti vely.


Table5.3.2.3.1Enrolmentsoftheschool-goingpopulation(5-24years)byarea


Figure 5.3.2.3.2 shows that school enrolment was highest in Omusati and Ohangwena, where it was
above 70%. By contrast, the lowest rates of enrolments were in Kunene and Omaheke where half or less
of the school-going populati on was enrolled at school.


Primary school enrolment rate is presented in table 5.3.2.3.3. The results show that overall the enrol-
ment rate was 87% for children aged 7-13 years old. The enrolment rate was higher (90%) in urban than
in rural areas. The table shows that more girls in this age are likely to enrol in school than boys. At re-
gional level, the highest enrolment rate of 92% was in the regions of Karas, Omusati and Oshana.

5.4 Disability


Disability was defined as a long-term physical, psychological or mental condition that limits a person from
carrying out everyday activities at home, work or school. It may be present from birth or develop during
a persons lifetime. Information on disability assists government in planning infrastructure, education
systems and community awareness programmes, for example.


During the Census, all people in private households and institutions were asked about types of long-term
permanent disability or limitation. Ten types of disability were identified for this purpose: blindness, vi-
sual impairment, deafness, hearing difficulties, mute/dumb, speech impairment, physical impairment of
lower and upper limbs, mental disability, albinism and autism.


The table below indicates that 4.7% of the total population lived with disabilities. The proportion of peo-
ple living with disabilities was higher in rural (5.7%) than in urban areas (3.3%). Regional figures show
that Oshikoto and Omusati had the highest proportion of disabled people, with about 7% and 6%, respec-
tively. Erongo had the lowest: 2.5%.

The Table 5.4.3 indicates that in urban areas the highest proportion of people with disabilities are those
with impairment of lower limbs with 23.7%. The proportion in rural areas was similar: 22.1%. The low-
est type of disability was albinism and autism, each of which was reported by about 1% of people with
disabilities.


Table 5.4.4 shows that about 42% of people with disabilities also have difficulty engaging in any learn-
ing and/or economic activity. There were no significant differences between males and females in this
respect, but higher proportions of people in rural (45.5%) than urban (34%) areas with disabilities had
difficulty engaging in learning and/or economic activities.

The Table 5.4.2 shows that Physical Impairment - Lower Limbs was the most common type of disability,
affecting 22.6% of all people with disabilities. The second most frequent disability was Visual Impair-
ment which affected 17.4% of the population with disabilities.

5.5 Orphanhood


Orphanhood is the condition of being less than 18 years of age and without one or both parents. Infor-
mation on orphans was collected from all members of the household.


Table 5.5.1 shows that 13.0% of all children had lost one parent, while another 2.7% had no parents.
Orphanhood is more prevalent in rural than in urban areas. 14% of children in rural areas were single
orphans compared to 11% in urban areas, while 3 % and 2% respectively were double orphans.


The highest levels of orphanhood were in the northern regions of the country. For example, about 17%
or one out of every six children had lost one or both parents in Ohangwena, Omusati and Oshana. Levels
of orphanhood were only slightly lower in Caprivi and Kavango.

5.6EconomicActivity


During Census enumerati on, all people aged 8 years and above were asked about their economic acti v-
ity within the last seven days prior to the Census reference night. The analyses presented below how-
ever only focus on the populati on aged 15 years and above. Unlike the labour force survey, which gives
detailed informati on on specifi c acti viti es, the Census only provides an overview of employment and
economic acti vity.


The Diagram 5.6 illustrates the compositi on and defi niti on of the economically acti ve and inacti ve popu-
lati on. Economically inacti ve people are students, homemakers and income recipients, while the eco-
nomically acti ve populati on is divided into unemployed and employed people. The diagram shows that
64% of the populati on aged 15 years of age and above were economically acti ve, 28.6% were economi-
cally inacti ve, and informati on for another 7.4% of the populati on was not available.

5.6.1EconomicallyActivePopulation


Table 5.6.1 shows that 63% of the economically active population aged 15 years and above were em-
ployed while 37% were unemployed. There were only slight differences between urban and rural areas:
63.9% of the population was employed in urban areas compared to 62.2% in rural areas.


Table5.6.1Activitystatusofeconomicallyactivepopulationaged15yearsandabovebysexandarea


5.6.2 Labour Force


The labour force participation rate is the proportion of the economically active people in a given popula-
tion group, which is calculated as the number of economically active people divided by the total popula-
tion in the same population group.


Table 5.6.2. (and Diagram 5.6.1) shows that the labour force participation rate for the country was 64.0%.
The rate was higher for men (67.2%) than for women (61.2%), both nationally and in rural and urban ar-
eas. However, labour force participation rate in rural areas (56%) were lower than in urban areas (74%).


At a regional level, labour force participation rates ranged between 49% (Omusati and Ohangwena) and
79% (Erongo). The labour force participation rate for women was lower in all regions except for the Ka-
vango and Omusati regions.

5.6.3PopulationandMainOccupation


Table 5.6.3 shows that skilled agricultural/fishery workers made up the largest occupation group (26.4%),
followed by elementary occupations (16.4%), service workers (13.7%) and craft and related trade workers
(12.1%). There are no significant differences between females and males among the top three occupa-
tional groups. However, craft and related trade workers were dominated by men (18.9%) compared to
3.7% for women. On the other hand, more women work as professionals and technicians and associate
professionals than men.


Table5.6.3Mainoccupationofemployedpopulation15yearsandabovebysex


5.6.4 Employment by Industry


Table 5.6.4 shows the employed population by main industry and sex at national level. Agriculture, for-
estry and fishing is the main industry (29.8%) of the work force followed by administration and support
services (8.7%). Wholesale and retail trade as well as construction companies each employ about 7% of
the workforce.


Education, financial insurance activities and accommodation and food serving activities are clearly the
domain of women, while men predominately work in mining, construction and transport businesses.

5.6.5EmploymentbyEducationalAttainment


Table 5.6.5 shows that about 42% of employed people have completed their secondary education. Fur-
thermore, it is shown that about 1 out of 5 (20.4%) employed people have not completed the primary
school. Women are better educated than men, on average. Thus, 44% of employed women had com-
pleted secondary education and 11% tertiary education, compared to 41% and 9% of men respectively.


5.6.6 Main Job Undertaken


Table 5.6.6 shows that the private sector provided jobs for the largest proportion of employees (39.8%),
followed by subsistence/communal farmers (without paid employees) (21.3%) and government (16.7%).
More men than women are employed by the private sector, but subsistence farming (without paid em-
ployees) was dominated by women.

5.6.7 Unemployment


The unemployment rate is the proportion of unemployed people in the labour force for a given popula-
tion group ( i.e. the number of unemployed people divided by all people in the labour force in the same
population group).


The unemployment rate in urban and rural areas was about 36% and 38%, respectively. Kavango had
the highest unemployment rate of over 50%, while the lowest was found in Khomas and Erongo, with
around 30% unemployment. The unemployment rate of women in rural and urban areas was the same
(43%), but it differed for men (32% and 29%, respectively). Unemployment rates for women were high-
est in Kavango (54.4%), Omaheke (51.7%) and Otjozondjupa (49.5%), while the highest rates of unem-
ployment among men were in Kavango (44.6%) and Ohangwena (40.4%).

5.7EconomicallyInactivePopulation


Table 5.7.1 provides informati on on the populati on of economically inacti ve people. Students consti tut-
ed the largest share (51.6%), followed by old age pensioners (23.4%) and homemakers (14.8%). Women
dominated the category of homemakers and old age pensioners (respecti vely, 19 and 26% of all economi-
cally inacti ve women), while the proporti on of economically inacti ve men in these categories was much
lower (9 and 20%, respecti vely).


Table 5.7.2 shows that 27% (or about one in four people) of the unemployed populati on were acti vely
looking for work. The proporti on of females looking for work was higher than males: 30.8 and 22.8%,
respecti vely. Perhaps surprisingly, the percentage of job seekers in urban areas was lower than in rural
areas: 24.4 and about 29.6%, respecti vely.


There were more females and higher proporti ons of unemployed females looking for work than men in
all regions. The greatest numbers of job seekers of both sexes were in Khomas, Ohangwena, Omusati and
Kavango.

This chapter provides information on household characteristics, particularly on household sizes, compo-
sition and income. Information on household assets, main languages spoken and agricultural activities is
also presented.


A household is defined as a group of people - related or unrelated - who live in the same dwelling unit and
share or have common catering arrangements.


6.1 Household size


Table 6.1 shows that a Namibian household consists of 4.4 persons, on average. This figure has decreased
since 1991 from 5.2 persons and 5.1 persons in 2001.


But the average household size is also smaller in urban areas (3.8) than in rural areas (5.1 people). House-
holds in Kavango were largest, but also dropped from an average of 6.5 in 2001 to 6.0 people in 2011.
On the other hand, Erongo had the lowest average household size of 3.3 people in 2011, which had also
dropped from 3.8 people recorded in 2001.


6.2Householdcomposition


The composition of households refers to the relationship of its members to the head of the household.
Several categories of relationships were used to categorize household members, including spouse, son/
daughter, grandchild, etc. Table 6.2.1 gives the distribution of the household population by relationship
to the head of the household.


Sons and daughters of the head account for about 27.6% of all relationships, while grandchildren (16.9%)
and other relatives (19.3%) make up other significant portions of household membership. Adding these
percentages together shows that almost two-thirds (63.8%) of all household members are direct relatives
of the head, demonstrating the high degree of extended family relationships in Namibia. Only 7.8% of
household members are spouses.


The average


household


size is 4.4


persons.

6.2.2 Sex of Household Head.


Table 6.2.2 shows that the majority of households (56.2%) are headed by men. Differences between
urban and rural households are small: 58.1% of urban households are male-headed compared to 54.4%
in rural areas.


Male-headed households predominate in most regions, except for the north-central regions of Ohang-
wena, Omusati and Oshana where more than half of households are headed by women. These regions
also have the lowest sex ratios of men per 100 women.

6.2.3 Household Headed by Children and Orphans.


Households headed by children and orphans require the attention of Government and other stakehold-

A total of 7,671 such households or 1.7% of all households was found in 2011. There were higher pro-
portions of households headed by children in rural (2.1%) than urban areas (1.2%). Kunene (2.8%) and
Ohangwena (2.7%) had the highest number of households headed by children while Erongo had the
lowest (1.0%).

6.4 Household assets


The ownership of assets is an important indicator of social welfare and living standards, and therefore
households that own certain assets have higher standards of living than those without. The Census col-
lected data on a wide range of assets including cars, televisions, radios and mobile phones. These can
be categorised into assets used for transportation and communication, and as domestic utilities, for
example.


Figure 6.4.1 provides information on the type of transport assets owned. Cars were the most common
and owned by 22.3% of all households, followed by bicycles (11%). Cars were the most common trans-
port asset in both urban and rural households owned by 29.8% and 15% of households, respectively.
Animal drawn carts were also frequently owned in rural areas by 6.3% of households.


6.3 Household Income


Households were asked to state their main source of income, which included: farming, business activities
(non-farming), wages and salaries, old age pension, cash remittances, retirement fund, and grants for
orphans and grants for people living with disabilities. Table 6.3.1 shows that wages and salaries were the
most frequent main source of income in Namibia, almost half (48%) of all households having this type of
main income. Second, as a main source of income, was farming in 16% of all households, followed by old
age pensions (14%) and other non-farming business activities (12%). Orphan and disability grants were
the main source of income for only 0.7% of households.


There were major differences between urban and rural areas. In urban areas, 68% of the households
reported wages and salaries as the main source of income, followed by business activities (non-farming)
in 15% of all households. Farming incomes (in 30.2% of households), wages and salaries (28.1%) and old-
age pensions (22.5%) were the main sources of income in rural households.


At a regional level, wages and salaries predominated in Erongo, Khomas and Karas, where more than
70% of households had these main sources of income. By contrast, farming activities were the main
source of income in many northern regions, particularly in Kavango where 43% of households reported
farming as their main income.

Informati on on the main language spoken in the household was collected from all households. From
data in Table 6.5, Oshiwambo languages were reported in almost half of all Namibian households (48.9%)
followed by Nama/Damara (11%), Afrikaans (10%) and Otjiherero and Kavango languages (both 9%).
Asian languages are not yet common in Namibia and are spoken in only 461 households representi ng

6.6AgricultureActivity


Agriculture is defined in the population census as any activity directly related to the production or pro-
cessing of crops, dairy products, poultry or livestock for commercial sale or as a principal means of
personal subsistence. This is known as own-account agriculture. Information was collected on the type
of agricultural activities in which households engaged during the past 12 months prior to the census.
Wherever applicable, households could report more than one type of agricultural activity.


Table 6.6 provides information on households engaged in agricultural activities. At a national level,
crop farming was most common, being reported by 32.8% of households, followed by livestock farm-
ing (25.1%) and poultry (13.5% of households). In rural areas, more than half (57%) of households are
involved in crop farming followed by livestock farming in 42% of households. However, even in urban
areas 7.9% and 7.7% of households were involved in livestock and crop farming, respectively, while only
2% had poultry.


Almost four out of five households in Ohangwena are involved in crop farming followed by Omusati
(70%) and Oshikoto (63%). Own account agricultural activities were reported least frequently by house-
holds in Erongo and Khomas.

This Chapter presents analyses of the characteristics of housing, which includes all structures used as
dwelling units. Aspects considered are the type of housing, tenure, materials used for building, housing
utilities, sources of energy and water supply sanitation, and.


7.1 Type of housing


Nine types of housing units were defined in the census: detached house, semi-detached/townhouse,
apartment/ flat, guest flat, part commercial/industrial, mobile home (caravan, tent), single quarters,
traditional dwelling and improvised housing unit (shack).


Table 7.1 indicates that traditional dwellings are most common, making up 37.7% of all households in Na-
mibia. These were followed by detached houses (30.1%) and improvised housing units (shacks, 16.0%).
Traditional houses are most common in rural areas where they are home to more than two-thirds of
households. Detached houses predominate in urban areas (44% of households). Improvised housing
units (shacks) are found largely in urban areas where they constitute about one-quarter (27%) of all
dwellings. By contrast, only 5% of rural households live in shacks.


Traditional dwellings are most common in the northern regions where with more than four out of five
households in Omusati and Ohangwena and almost three out of four in Kavango live in them. The op-
posite is the case in the central and southern regions where detached houses are occupied by about half
or more of all households in Hardap, Omaheke, Otjozondjupa, Karas, Khomas and Erongo.

7.2 Type of Tenure


Tenure refers to the conditions which govern the rights of individuals to occupy dwelling units. The most
frequent forms are tenancy (in which rent is paid to a landlord) and owner occupancy which can be
subdivided into owner-occupier or mortgaged. In the case of tenancy, the landlord can be a private
individual, non-profit organization such as a housing association, or a government body which provides
public housing.


Table 7.2 shows that most housing units (56%) in the country are owned and occupied by households
without mortgage. These are more common in rural areas (where they make up 74.3% of households)
than urban areas (37.4%). Housing units occupied by owners with mortgages are mainly found in urban
areas (23%), and less so in rural areas (6%). This is because most dwellings in rural areas are traditional
houses that do not have title deeds and can not be mortgaged. Only in urban areas are significant num-
bers of dwelling units rented.


7.3 Average number of people per room


The Census collected information on the number of bedrooms per household, and the average number
of people per bedroom (or room occupancy), which provides an indicator of crowding.


Table 7.3 shows that the average number of people per sleeping room was 1.5, which suggests that most
households are not overcrowded in Namibia. There were no major differences between urban and rural
areas in this respect.


Caprivi and Omaheke had the highest room occupancy of 2.2 and 2.0, respectively. The lowest average
number of people per bedroom (1.3) was in Ohangwena, Omusati and Oshana.

7.4Materialsusedforconstruction


The section presents information on the materials used to construct roofs, walls and floors, which are
important indicators of the socio-economic conditions and welfare of households. Most of the materials
used can be broadly divided between those that are harvested with labour from local resources (grass,
stick, mud and dung etc) and those that are purchased with cash (cement bricks or blocks and corrugated
iron, for example.

Table 7.4.1 shows that 41.1% of households reside in dwellings with walls made from cement/bricks.
These are considered permanent/durable materials and an indicator of development. About 57% of
urban households use cement/bricks for outer walls compared to 26% for rural households. There was a
much higher proportion of rural households that used wood poles/sticks or grass/reeds for walls (29.6%)
than the 3.6% found in urban areas.


At a regional level, households with walls constructed from cement blocks/bricks/stones were predomi-
nant in Erongo (57.6%), Hardap (61.2%), Khomas (57.9%) and Otjozondjupa (52.8%). On the other hand,
mud/clay and/or cow dung walls were common in Caprivi (51.7%), Kavango (33.2%) and Kunene (41.7%).

Table7.4.2Percentdistributionofhouseholdsbymainmaterialusedfortheroof


Table 7.4.2 shows that corrugated iron sheets were the main material used for roofing, covering more
than half of all Namibian households, followed by thatch/grass (26%). In urban areas, 78% of households
live in dwellings where roofs are constructed with corrugated iron sheets, compared to 46% in rural ar-
eas.


Roofs made from corrugated iron/zinc predominate in most regions, except in Kavango, Ohangwena and
Omusati where most roofs are thatch or grass. In Erongo, the main material used for roofing was asbes-
tos sheet which is more durable than corrugated iron along the coast.

Table7.4.3Percentdistributionofhouseholdsbymainmaterialusedforthefloor


Table 7.4.3 shows that exactly one third (33%) of all Namibian households have floors of sand/earth and
another third (33%) have cement floors. While sand/earth is more common in rural dwellings (43% of
households), cement is the main material in urban areas (35.4%) followed closely by tiles (33%). How-
ever, cement is also an important material in rural areas (31%), as well as clay and mud (23%).


7.5 Sources of energy


Data collected from private households on energy for cooking, lighting and heating provide useful in-
formation on social conditions and development. This information is also valuable as a measure of Na-
mibias use of renewable (such as solar and wind power) and non-renewable (oil and coal, for instance)
resources, and the environmental consequences of using different kinds of energy.


Table 7.5.1 indicates that about 54% of households in Namibia rely on wood as the main source of energy
for cooking and about 33% on electricity from the national grid. More than half (59%) of urban house-
holds rely on electricity for cooking while 86.2% of households in rural areas use wood to cook. However,
about 20% of households in urban areas also use wood for cooking.


Electricity from the main grid is mostly used by households in Erongo, Khomas and Hardap, with 76.4,
63.6 and 48.7%, respectively. The majority of the households in northern regions use wood and charcoal
from wood. Households in Karas (29.2%) use gas to a much larger extent than households in any region.
Khomas is the only region where paraffin or kerosene was used commonly for cooking (14%), but this
fuel is commonly used for lighting in other regions, as shown in the next section.

Table 7.5.2 below shows that the most common source of energy for lighting in Namibia is electricity
from the main grid (42.3%). More than two-thirds of the households (70.1%) in urban areas rely on
electricity, while half of the households in rural areas use candles for lighting. Solar energy is not widely
used, but plays a more important role in rural areas (2%) than in urban areas (0.4%). Electricity for light-
ing predominates in Erongo (81%) but is only used by a minority in Omusati (9%). More than one out of
four households in Omaheke uses paraffin lamps for lighting.


Data in Table 7.5.3 show that 46.3% of households in Namibia used wood/charcoal from wood for heat-
ing whereas 27.6% rely on electricity from the main grid for heating.


Wood dominates the heating materials in rural areas where it was used in 75% of the households. Only
6.5% of rural households use electricity from the main grid and only a tiny proportion (0.3%) rely on
electricity from generators and solar energy. The majority of urban households are heated with electric-
ity from the main grid (49.3%).

7.6WaterSupplyandSanitation


This section covers the main source of water for drinking and cooking, the types of toilet facilities, and
disposal of waste or garbage for households. Poor sanitation and inadequate access to safe water are
public health concerns because they create conditions conducive to the spread of diseases. Table 7.6.1
shows that 30.1% of the households have access to piped water within their housing while another
19.7% have access to piped water outside their dwellings.


Almost all urban households have access to safe water (98%) in the form of piped water inside or outside
their dwellings, or from public pipes or boreholes. 59% of rural households share the same privilege, but
16% of rural households rely on unsafe water from rivers or streams and another 13% on unsafe water in
unprotected wells. 99% of households in the Khomas region have access to safe water, but only 52% in
the Omusati region. About half of all households in the Erongo and Khomas regions have access to piped
water inside their homes, but this is the case for only 12% in Caprivi and Kavango. Households in these
regions rely mainly on public pipes (33% in Caprivi) and rivers (26% in Kavango).

Chapter 7: Housing Characteristics




78 NAMIBIA 2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS MAIN REPORT


Table 7.6.2 shows that 49% households in Namibia have no private toilet facility while close to 40% have
one or another type of flush toilet.


Various types of flush toilets are common in urban areas and used by about 69% of households, while
three out of four households in rural areas do not have any toilet facility. However, 22% of urban house-
holds also do not have toilet facilities. About 10% of households use pit latrines with a slightly higher
share in rural than urban households. The bucket system is more common in the Hardap region (6%) than
anywhere else.


7.7 Garbage and Waste Disposal


Table 7.7.1 shows that the most common means of disposing garbage in Namibia is through burning
(38%) followed by regular collection (37%). Rubbish pits and roadside dumping accounts for a combined
20% of waste disposal. 70% of urban households benefit from regular waste collection while two of three
rural households burn their waste. Regular waste collection in rural areas is only available to about 5%
of all households.


Regular waste collection is most common in the Erongo and Khomas region (80% and 74%, respectively),
but almost unknown in the Omusati and Ohangwena regions (both 6%).
