Abstract
Urbanisation means an increase in the proportion of people living in urban areas compared to rural areas. An urban area is a built-up area such as a town or city. A rural area is an area of countryside. As a country industrialises, the number of people living in urban areas trends to increase. The UK and many other MEDCs urbanized during the 18th and 19th centuries. People migrated from rural areas to urban areas .Where there was employment in the new factories. The area of cities known as the inner city developed during this time as rows of terraced housing were built for workers.
