The purpose of this paper is primarily to present some basic facts about regional inequality in Kenya. After some introductory observations on regional policy in Kenya since independence, estimates of the production levels by province for all one-digit sectors between 1967 and 1976 are presented. Some factors behind the observed pattern of development are tentatively discussed. Then some aspects of regional differences in employment and the distribution of public services are discussed.
