In many countries, people are moving away from rural areas and towards urban areas. Why do you think that is? What problems can this cause?

In today’s fast-paced society, it is noted that the global population is increasing at an exponential

rate

Therefore

, jobs are created, catering to the demands of these booming numbers. In fact, other than citizens working in the big metropolis, numerous people living in the desolated areas are shifting

as overcrowding of space and retrenchment during difficult times can affect their lives. Certainly, people living in rural areas move into the

city

in hopes of searching for better jobs. Many travel out of their community to earn for a living as well as to support their family living at home. To exemplify, in Indonesia, there are several villages and farms located in these places where

However

, being a farmer does not obtain commission much as he earns the bare minimum. Indeed, some make losses as the production cost is often more than the amount of food sold in their businesses.

Thus

, many citizens from the rural parts move to the

area to look for higher-profile professions. Yet,

such

actions result in consequences, impacting harshly on the job-seekers from the villages. Undeniably, the modernised areas will face overcrowding issues, leading to an increase in crime rates.

For example

, in Thailand, the country faces problems with the transport system. Due to the already populated urban areas, with the addition of people from rural areas, trains are bound to be overcrowded and roads are becoming more congested.

Besides

, since citizens in these densely populated areas are preoccupied with squeezing and pushing to get on the buses and trains to work, pickpockets lurk in these areas.

Thus

Furthermore

Hence

of unemployment rose to 41% in Singapore.

Similarly
