All sample groups are classified according to age ranged between 30-79 years and divided into subgroups for every 10 years. The results showed that BMC and BMD values are higher in rural group in comparison to urban group for all age categories with a highly significant: p = 0.0001.The Viva committee was chaired by Asst.
