Question

(geography) state 2 difference between urban and urban migration


​

Answer 1

Answer:

First, you need to understand the definition of a Rural area and an Urban area.

These terms differ depending on our geographical locations, country context and International standards.

For Uganda’s case, one of the developing countries in Africa, rural areas can be categorized as areas with a low population density, poor service delivery in terms of roads, health infrastructures, schools etc, low income structures, and agricultural based, among others)

Urban areas are the opposite (High population density, improved economy, improved living standards, livelihood are diversified and agriculture is on a small scale, among others)

With that in mind; we can now differentiate the terms you asked about.

Rural Urban Migration (RUM) is the movement of people from rural areas to urban areas (Urban Rural Migration____Is the opposite)

Rural Urban transformation (RUT) is a process that involves physical, social, economic, cultural and political changes in a linked and connected manner of rural and urban sectors. Is about change in form, appearance, nature, or character of rural and urban dimensions.
