KNBS 2019 Urban Centres Population

This dataset details the population distribution across urban centres in Kenya as of 2019.
It provides a gender breakdown (male and female) for the total population of each urban centre.
The "KENYA" entry represents the total urban population for the entire country, significantly larger than any individual urban centre.
Nairobi City, Mombasa, Nakuru, and Ruiru are among the largest urban centres by population.
Female populations are slightly higher than male populations on average across the urban centres.
There is a null value in the 'county' column for the "KENYA" entry, which is expected as it represents the national total.
The 'total' population for "KENYA" is an extreme outlier compared to individual urban centres, representing the sum of all urban populations.

Which counties have the highest number of urban centres represented in the dataset?
Is there a significant gender imbalance in the urban populations of specific counties?
