Favelas are not suitable solutions to the rising urban population, though. They present many health and safety problems. They are:
• Built on hills that are too steep to support homes safely.
• Made of cardboard, corrugated iron or scrap wood, offering little protection from the elements.
• Lacking in water, electricity or a safe means of sanitation.
• Far from shops, schools or transportation routes.
• Usually inhabited by large families that have many children.
• Prone to disease outbreaks due to bad sanitation.
• Susceptible to crime and violence due to a desperate lack of money as well as the thriving drug trafficking industry.
