Answer 2

Answer:

1. Urbanisation occurs because people move from rural areas (countryside) to urban areas (towns and cities). This usually occurs when a country is still developing.

$\bold\red {The \: three \: main \: causes \: of \: urbanisation :}$

1. Rural to urban migration is happening on a massive scale due to population pressure and lack of resources in rural areas. These are ‘push’ factors.

2. People living in rural areas are ‘pulled’ to the city. Often they believe that the standard of living in urban areas will be much better than in rural areas. They are usually wrong. People also hope for well-paid jobs, the greater opportunities to find casual or ‘informal’ work, better health care and education.

3. Natural increase caused by a decrease in death rates while birth rates remain high.
