The IDP population is consistently reducing, with 50% of the originally displaced in July 2010, currently reported to be living in IDP sites. Proportionally, the largest decrease in the IDP population is seen in the southern regions, likely due to more possibilities for alternatives outside the IDP sites. The general trend of IDP site population is reducing irrespective of the size of the site. There is an addition of previously unaccounted for populations due to growing humanitarian concerns.
