    In sub-Saharan Africa on average, a city of greater than 50,000 will more than likely offer the markets and services sought by rural farm households as a means of trading or selling their own goods as well as buying food, clothing, etc… for their families. To gain a better understanding of the accessibility to these market centers, in addition to the map, we looked at the distribution of both land and rural populations among several accessibility classes by specific countries and regional groupings in Sub-Saharan Africa. The travel time to market centers is divided into four classes: High: 0-2 hours, Medium: 2-4 hours, Low: 4-8 hours & Remote: >8 hours.
