The Effects of Urbanization

Urbanization Urbanization is a gradual urbanization of urban areas or urban populations. Urbanization is mainly related to the phenomenon of rural-city movement when people migrate from rural to urban areas for better quality of life (R. Faridi, 2012) (Tellnes P, 2014 ). It can be said that this is the only way of increasing population, but if you choose to do so, people may move from other urban areas to other more urbanized areas.

Urbanization tends to have more negative impacts, but one positive effect of urbanization is an increase in physical activity compared to rural areas. Residents and communities in the rural areas of the United States have a higher obesity rate and less physical activity compared to urban dwellers. Rural residents consume a higher proportion of fat calories, are less likely to meet the guidelines for physical activity, and are unlikely to be physically inactive. Compared with the United States, the lack of physical activity in the western region has the lowest prevalence, while the lack of physical activity in the southern region has the highest prevalence. Sports activities in metropolitan areas and metropolitan areas in all regions are the most common

Many of the environmental impacts in urban areas are not necessarily linear. Metropolitan areas do not necessarily cause more environmental problems. Small towns can cause big problems. The majority of the factors that determine the degree of environmental impact are urban population behavior - their consumption and lifestyle patterns - not how big they are. The urban environment is an important factor in determining urban impact on urban life quality and wider environment. Among urban environmental problems, there are insufficient water and sanitation, lack of waste disposal, industrial pollution, etc. 18. Unfortunately, it is expensive to reduce the problem and improve the impact on urban population.
