This dataset delivers a 500 meter gridded Socio-Economic Development Index for Kenya together with household counts distributed across ten SEDI classes and percentage breakdowns by group. It supports regional socioeconomic profiling, targeting and segmentation, and impact and needs assessments by revealing spatial patterns of household wealth proxies and development levels. The 500 meter resolution balances spatial detail and summary stability for policy planning, market prioritization, and equity-focused analyses. The data are suitable for mapping, clustering, stratified sampling, and integration with demographic or infrastructure layers to inform program design and resource allocation.

Key attributes include:

• 500 meter grid coverage across Kenya for regional socioeconomic assessment

• Composite socio-economic development index for comparative profiling

• Household counts apportioned across ten socioeconomic classes for segmentation

• Percent group breakdowns to analyze concentration and distribution of household types

• Suitable for spatial clustering, stratified targeting, and integration with other geospatial datasets

Government agencies, NGOs, researchers, and commercial planners can use the SEDI grid to target interventions, prioritize markets, and evaluate socio-economic disparities across regions.
