The distribution of population at the Northwest Region Varies widely between 1900 and 2000.

Starting in 1900, most people in the region lived at rural areas, about 65% of population at this time compared to only 10% of them in suburban areas and 35% settled at urban areas.

Then in 1950, some people shifted to live from rural areas to suburban areas with percentage of 45% and 20% respectively, but it was the same percentage of population living in urban areas compared to 1900 with a percentage of 35%.

Progressing to 2000, more people shift from rural to suburban areas and so the percentage of suburban and urban were the same, about 40%, leaving only 20% of population in rural parts.

With this continuous change and shift, by the year 2050, it`s projected that there will be more and more reduction in the rural areas settlers to about 10% of population and more increase in the suburban areas population to 55%, while there could be about 35% of them living in urban areas.
