This indicator quantifies the proportion of Tonga's total population residing in urban areas. It offers a snapshot of the nation's urbanization trend, reflecting migration from rural to urban centers. For economists and policymakers, this figure is crucial for understanding demographic shifts, which directly influence resource allocation and infrastructure development. A rising percentage signals increasing demand for urban services such as housing, transportation, and employment, potentially straining existing capacities. Conversely, a stagnant or declining rate might indicate challenges in urban job markets or a resurgence of rural economic activity.

Changes in this percentage are a key input for urban planning, social service provision, and assessing the pace of economic modernization.
