The concern for this study is to show and prove how human population is a vital issue in development plan. It is a strong determinant of the socio-economic and political prosperity of a nation.

The study elicited data via structure questionnaire and focus group discussions (FGD). Hypotheses of the study were tested using bi-variate and multi-variate techniques. Findings revealed that age at entry into marital union, contraceptive use and educational level significantly determined fertility differentials between rural and urban communities in South-Western Nigeria.
