PROBLEM IN THE CITY

 





There are one problem or the other facing the big city irrespective of there development and growth. 

   1. Urban spread

Urban spread or real expansion of the cities, either in population and geographical area, of rapidly growing cities is the root cause of problem. In most cities the economic base is incapable of dealing with the problems created by their excessive  size. Massive immigration from rural arrears as well as from small towns into big cities has taken place almost consistently; thereby adding to the size of cities.

In several big cities wealthy people are constantly moving from the crowded centers of the cities of the cities to the more pleasant residential where they can build larger houses and enjoy the  and privacy of a garden around the house.


   2. Over crowding: 

Overcrowding is situation where by many people live in a little space. Overcrowding is a consequence of over-population in urban areas. If developed country is give too much room for anyone to live in there country it will lead to over-population. It is naturally expected that cities having a large size of population squeezed in a small space.


   3.  House 

Overcrowding leads to a chronic problem of shortage of houses in urban areas where there is large influx of unemployed or underemployed immigrants who have no place to live in when they enter cities or towns from the surrounding areas. 



  4.Air pollution 

Air pollution is the contamination of air due to the presence of substances in the atmosphere that are harmful to the health of humans and other living beings, or cause damage to the climate or to materials. There are types of air pollutants such as biological molecules and gases. Traffic congestion in the cities contribute greatly to air pollution, which we consider here as a separate urban problem. Traffic create pollution from motor vehicles’ exhaust systems, and some cities have factories and other enterprises that also pollute. As a result, air quality in cities is substandard. The poor air quality has damages to our health, as it produces higher rates of respiratory and heart diseases and higher mortality rates in cities. Cities are unhealthy places and even deadly places for many people.




     4.Homelessness

A related problem is lack of house. In cities men, women, and children live in the streets, abandoned vehicles or houses, cheap motels, or trailers, or living in someone else’s home temporarily. In cities with cold climates, homelessness can be life-threatening during the winter. But regardless of climate, the homelessness are in a terrible situation.

C ity as got to be one of the most exciting place to live. Many people seems to think city life is too fast paced or too fake for them to enjoy city life. Living the city for me is one of the thing I love, hearing some of the hustle going outside my house use to give me a sign that I am not alone in the world.  There are reasons I chose to live in the city because city is full of entertainment, transportation and cost also being able to gather experience.

High cost of living The high cost of living i s the first disadvantage that people typically think of when  moving to the city. Major cities always have a high cost of living than the residential area, and cities like New York have high cost of living.
