The economy of Tribal Region is one in which, in spite of many initiatives, a high level of socioeconomic inequality persists owing to erratic law and order situation, inaccessibility to commodity markets and feeble means of earning. Author belongs to village Naryab which is located in tribal region of Pakistan. A comprehensive research was undertaken by author to map the spatial distribution of socio-economic inequality in this small village. Primary data on income and other socio-economic and environmental factors was collected through survey method. Using this data, economic modeling of the inequality was done. This was followed by a prismatic analysis of the inequality of socio-economic factors using Gini coefficient for each factor. Higher income concentration were observed with rising per capita incomes as the top group's income share rises and the bottom income group's share falls. This all was mapped using latest mapping software. The maps revealed spatial distribution of inequality and many other important aspects which have been discussed in this paper. Based on the results obtained, policy implications of the inequality of socio-economic factors for the whole tribal region have been elucidated at the end in the paper. Inequality mapping is a new subject, hence, paper has wide application and is very valuable to the readership.
