Abstract

In this paper, the Gini’s concentration ratio is used to find the variability in district size distribution based on the Pareto model. We studied the variability of the male and female rural population of all districts in Tamil Nadu state as per 2011 census data using the Gini’s concentration ratio based on Pareto distribution and it is found that the Gini’s concentration ratio for female population is greater than the male population. This indicates that the female population has more concentration than male population in district level of the state. Also it is found that the Gini’s concentration ratio is truncated invariant only for the Pareto distribution.

 

Keywords: District size distribution, Gini’s concentration ratio, invariant, maximum likelihood estimation, Pareto model, truncation-invariant
