Statement of the Problem
As countries pursue development and industrialization the need to build urban areas become certain. The lack of urban cities will cause people in the rural areas wants to move to the urban areas. Every person wants a standard of living better than where is he now. Therefore the drive to migrate to urban areas becomes obvious. Rural to urban migration leads to a loss of man power in the rural areas to work on the farm lands. It will lead to the declining of agriculture. It also leads to congestion in the urban areas therefore unemployment level will raise because people would fight over limited jobs. Poor housing situation will also increase because people from the rural areas choose to stay in an area near their jobs or livelihood because they can save a lot of money instead of using it for transportation. Informal settlers can cause a dispute with the government regarding with their place. The crime level will also increase it is because people who are desperate to earn money or wanted an easy way to earn money without hard work they choose the path of evil which can be destructive to people’s life and can affect the development of an area.
Rural to urban migration will increase the man power in urban areas but people who would win in this situation are people who own businesses and industries because labor would be cheap. The lack of job opportunities drives people in rural area to migrate to urban area and it can cause a problem similar to “brain drain” on rural areas. Rural to urban migration also have a positive effect like sending money from work in urban area to their family in rural area, it would increase their household income and can improve their quality of life.

...ral areas by rural to urban migration is the decrease of crime rate it is because there would be less population and the jobs of the security force like the police or barangay captain would be easy. With less population there would be less need of land and shelter or houses, therefore there will be more trees in the area and industries like logging can operate. The negative impact to rural areas by rural to urban migration is there will be no progress or development. When labor force and young dependent would migrate to urban areas there will be a declining in the birth rate and the reduction of food production. If the migrants have cut their ties with their rural areas and not supporting the small-scale business, businesses in the rural area would be force to shut down. Rural areas would turn into a ghost town and only the old dependent people would be left there.
The Migration and Culture class field trip to Nogales Mexico was an educational trip. It served to give the students a greater understanding of other cultures and the migration issues that affect them. The mere sight of Nogales makes it easy to see the disorganization. The terrain and apparent lack of city planning makes the thought of reorganization a daunting task. The many houses that rest precariously on the hillsides are densely packed. The poverty is striking and the businesses, houses and lack of services are the obvious signs.
Does illicit migration help or hurt the financial advancement in the United States? Regardless of the way that numerous specialists have endeavored to answer this inquiry in light of their exploration it appears as though numerous key variables have gone unrepresented and unaccounted for in explaining this inquiry, which can now and then deliver exceptionally blended results. While some have shown previously established inclination in replying, others just have not known the truths or the diverse side 's to the contention, which could prompt a reasonable answer. Rather some feel that new demographics and changes because of movement stance just a test and load for American understudies, managers and natives (Arnold, 1995).Unfortunately, it
The mass migration of immigrants to a developed country can cause the population of that country to increase rapidly. This expansion of population can negatively affect multiple aspects of the country, including its culture, quality of life, and natural environment. An influx of new citizens to a particular area forces the current citizens of that area to change the way that they live. As population density increases, congestion increases. As a result, it becomes more difficult to move from place to place and reduces access to public goods. When a country becomes overpopulated, the demand for goods exceeds the supply, which raises the prices of various commodities including food, shelter, and healthcare. This inflation means that people have to pay more to survive and feed their families. Overpopulation additionally gives rise to unemployment since there are fewer jobs to support a large number of people. The surge in unemployment also increases crime rates as people steal various items to feed their families. These outcomes ultimately lower the quality of life of the citizens of this area, not to mention the destruction to the environment caused by the increased consumption of goods and increase in pollution. There are only a certain number of natural resources in a region, and they get depleted due to overpopulation. The sudden lack of resources per person requires that the citizens
The two major communities that individuals live in are urban and rural. Both types have both positive and negative aspects. The focus of this paper is on rural communities. From my research rural environments are not as popular as urban ones; however, the citizens who live in these communities are very happy with the lifestyle they chose. The word rural is generally associated with communities that lack accessibility to public services such as transit, shopping, and entertainment. This is generally used in communities where farming is a primary occupation. In my study I interviewed three individuals who identify as living in a rural community.
...Population explosion, agricultural changes, and the increasing demand for more workers led to urbanization, or the migration of people to cities. The enclosure movement played an important role in urbanization because when the rich landowners would take over the farmers' land, the farmers would be kicked off their own land. Some farmers had to leave because they couldn't keep up with the competition from the landowners. These jobless farmers then migrated to the cities because they could get jobs because of the growing demand for workers. New sources of energy, such as the coal-powered steam engine, helped entrepreneurs change the way their work was done and helped power the Industrial Revolution. Also, declining death rates due to the agricultural revolution decreased famines and led to a population explosion. Thus, large numbers of people migrated to cities.
Urbanization has to deal with the construction of new modernized construction and the use of technology, in total it means advancing from the local to make modernized place and an industrial site. Also it includes the construction of infrastructural buildings, infrastructural buildings are buildings that are constructed for the betterment of the country for the people it includes hospital, schools, bridges, water supplies and different other buildings. Most of the land were covered by the trees, and they only few people living there, in order to develop a modernized place, or an urbanized place, construction needs to be made. In the determination of making an urbanized place where factories and all could be done, practice such as deforestation is done. Lands that were filled with tees are then cutting in order to satisfy the project of urbanization. The urbanized places are still developing which increases the rate of
Migration is the movement of people from one geographical location to another, involving permanent or temporary settlement. Since Homo erectus left Africa over a million years ago, the constant transfer of people between different countries has been continued. Because migration has a key human response to environmental, social, political, and economic changes (Hall, et al, 2010). Population dynamics happens over time and space on the population. The very reasons for the happening of change of population size, composition and distribution are migration, fertility, and mortality. Especially, migration has a direct effect on the geographic distribution of population. Migration (whether internal or international is one of the main factors that

An increase in human population can influence our economy. Some of the factors that are affected are unemployment, poverty and the restriction of economic expansion. When the population increases, the cost of health, education, and other areas of urban growth are affected. Unempl...
Mainly advantages of location decide the structural growth of the industries in the economy. More number of states in the country faces the problem of advantage location. Similarly, the agriculture sector also suffers from natural calamities and other disturbances. The dependence on agriculture varies considerably across the states.
Trying to find a job in the countryside means facing the triple threat. The triple threat is a failing farm and factory-based economy, rising unemployment, and shrinking wages and benefits (Carr & Kefalas, 2009). Why would one want to stay in an area that has fewer jobs, less pay, and less benefits? This is a huge reason why so many individuals are leaving the rural area, there is nothing keeping them to stay. As stated earlier, there are many patterns we can see in terms who decides to leave the rural area and who decides to stay in the rural area. For those who tend to leave the rural area, do so for many reasons. Patterns show that most people are leaving for better paying jobs, benefits, more opportunities, and a better life style (Carr & Kefalas, 2009). Many of these people don’t believe there is a place for them to work if they are not interested in agriculture and or farming. Which in some cases is true, but it is becoming this way because all of these young educated people are leaving and no one is starting up new businesses that would provide more jobs for others. Another big pattern I see effecting people and families to leave the rural area is because of education for there children/child or their future children/child. Everyone wants their children/child to get an
Imagine having to choose to reside in one place for the rest of your life. Which would you opt for? Some people would argue that the hyperactive lifestyle that a big city has to offer has more benefits than living in the country. However, others would contend that the calm and peaceful environment of the countryside is much more rewarding. Several people move from the city to a farm to get away from the hustle and bustle. Likewise, some farmers have traded in their tractors and animals to live a fast paced city life. Of course, not all large cities are the same nor are all of the places in the country identical. Realizing this, ten years ago, I decided to hang up the city life in Indiana to pursue a more laid back approach to life in rural Tennessee. Certainly, city life and life in the country have their benefits, but they also have distinguishable differences.
One of the significant differences I noticed is the social opportunities that are not feasible in the countryside towns. Many people prefer big city life because of the opportunities they see in the cities. People living in cities find jobs easily because of the corporations and industries. Cities have more competition which sometimes leads to a low cost of living. The other factors that contribute to the low cost of living in the cities are easy transportation, generic job availabilities, and other benefits provided by the government. Because of the low transportation facilities, and less job availabilities, country people experience high cost ...
Due to rural-urban migration, there has been increasing levels of poverty and depopulation in rural areas. This is one of the reasons why the government has seen it as necessary and made it a priority to improve the lives of the people who live in rural areas. Rural development is about enabling people in the rural areas take charge of their destiny. This is through the use and management of the natural resources they are exposed to. This is a process through which people learn over time and they use this knowledge to adapt to the changing world. The purpose of rural development is to improve the lives of people living in the rural areas.
