Answers. Best Answer: Socio-demographic factors refer to a a set of variables such as a given population's age, ethnicity, or SES (socioeconomic status), whether they reside in an urban or rural area... the list goes on.
Socioeconomic status is typically broken into three categories (high SES, middle SES, and low SES) to describe the three areas a family or an individual may fall into. When placing a family or individual into one of these categories, any or all of the three variables (income, education, and occupation) can be assessed.his phenomenon is often called the SES Gradient or according the World Health Organisation the Social Gradient.
