The bar chart below gives information about the percentage of the population living in urban areas in the world and in different continents. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The given bar shows the proportion of the urban six regions throughout the years from 1950 to 2050.

Overall

, it is evident that all regions will experience a significant increase in 2050, particularly North

America

with 90%, placing it as the highest percentage,

while

the average proportion in 1950 was generally smaller with 15% of Africa's residents as the lowest one. From 1950 to 2050, North

America

had a steady position as the biggest proportion, starting at 64% in 1950 and expected to be 90% in 2050.

On the contrary

, Africa always held the smallest population in those years, projected with only 62% in 2050, which created an enormous difference to North

America

.

Moreover

, Latin

America

will nearly have the same number as North

America

, creating a subtle gap in 2007 and 2050 with 89% and 90%, respectively.

Furthermore

, Oceania and Europe will undergo a moderate increase from 2007 to 2050. In Oceania, it will rise to only 76%,

whereas

Europe climb to 84%.

In contrast

, Africa and Asia were the least populated in 1950 with 15% and 17%, before they went up predictably to 62 and 66% in 2050.
