Community Center Settlements in the VEP South Study Area
This map shows the locations of the largest sites in the VEP South study area, which we call community centers. Many of the large sites in this study area are also referred to as villages, but the biggest sites in the VEP South area grew so large they are sometimes called towns. The red dots are the smallest community centers, and our population estimates indicate these sites where home to 9–30 households, or 54–180 people. The yellow dots are medium-sized centers, which were home to 31–100 households, or 186–600 people. The blue dots are large centers and these were home to 100–200 households, or 600–1,200 people. The extra-large centers are shown as green dots, and these were home to 200–475 households, or 1,200–2,850 people.
