Botswana’s urban population is concentrated in Gaborone and Francistown, which together account for the majority of city residents. Mining towns such as Selibe-Phikwe, Jwaneng, Orapa, and Sowa remain smaller but economically significant, reflecting their specialized industrial roles rather than broad urban expansion. Across all listed towns, females slightly outnumber males, a pattern consistent with national demographic trends.
