As a result
of growth in the world's population, the requirement for
houses
also
has simultaneously increased.
However
, the bottleneck in facilitating
this
need is the unavailability of sufficient land extent.
Therefore
, the available next best option would be to move residence
areas

in the viewpoint out that
such
a decision would harm the surroundings of rural
areas
, and it is critical to safeguard them.
This
essay disagrees with

opinion as shelter is a basic need of human beings, and there are many ways to develop housing options without disturbing the environment.
Further
, there are ample amounts of left aside bare lands in village
areas
, which could be converted into housing schemes.
The new trend for
houses
is for eco-friendly
houses
. Because the public prefers to have their homes closer to the environment.
Accordingly

houses

areas
would attract

clog in cities because of the facilities and ease of life.
Also
, there are lands in village
areas
which are not considered for productive use. If
such
non-cultivated bare lands could be utilised to develop condominiums, the population density in cities would be reduced.
As a result
of
this
environmental pollution will be reduced.
Furthermore

this
would be a very good solution to develop the countryside by increasing the contribution to the national economy.

is the methodology followed by many countries like Canada and Australia, where they offer visas for skilled
people
of other countries to have residence in their rural
areas
.
In conclusion, it is mandatory to have proper solutions for the growing need for shelter. Rather than trying to increase population density in cities, developing residence
areas
in rural
areas
would be the solution. Because, with the support of new technology
houses
could be built with the least disturbance to nature.
Such
an initiative would support society's development too.
