write a short note on the various kinds of urban settlements

Rural vs. Urban
Joan and Nell live in very different places. Nell is in a big city with lots of other people, and Joan is in a small town with just a few other people. But they are both in settlements. To distinguish between different types of settlements, people often classify settlements as either urban or rural.
Urban settlements are usually large. That is, they are densely populated with many people. Nell's city is an example of an urban settlement. There are many people in the city!
Rural settlements, on the other hand, are generally small. That is, they are sparsely populated. There's a low density of population, so there are few people in rural settlements. Joan's small town is an example of a rural settlement. There just aren't that many people there.
Often, urban settlements have mostly non-agricultural occupations, while rural settlements have mostly agricultural occupations. For example, many farmers live in a sparsely populated area, and far fewer of them live in a densely populated city.
Defining settlements in terms of urban and rural makes sense. After all, there are many differences between the two. But there is a major problem with defining rural and urban settlements. There's no consensus on what makes a rural settlement and what makes an urban one.
For example, some small villages in India or China are more populated than large towns or small cities in America and Europe. Are those small villages rural or urban, then? It depends on who you ask!
Likewise, in the United States and other countries, several small towns can blend together, which makes it seem like an urban area even though it's not. Each country deals with this differently, by defining urban areas differently. But the problem remains; there's no agreement on what, exactly, makes a place rural or urban.
