Some communities in the somalia only have tuulos and cities.others, especially farming communities have large village settlements and cities, perhaps explaining the confusion.

tuulo

there is no somali word for town as town is a useless word. it is called magaalo yar small city

xaafad can mean both a neighbourhood or a house

degmo is district or a borough

Somali nomads have three terms for settlements:1.baadiye (bedouin land) 2.tuulo ( small town in between the baadiye and the magaalo) 3.magaalo (city).
