In which situation can urban population growth be rapid?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When jobs, services and in-migration increase

The correct answer is A: urban growth can be rapid when jobs, services and in-migration increase. Urban population changes through births, deaths and migration. A city that offers employment, education, health care, transport and other services can attract people from villages and other towns. This movement into the city is in-migration, and it adds residents directly. Births may add further people, so the population can rise quickly when the city is both attractive and able to support newcomers. Choice B is incorrect because closing services generally makes a city less attractive and may encourage people to leave. Choice C is incorrect because people leaving is out-migration, which reduces or slows urban growth. Choice D is incorrect because zero births and zero in-migration provide no addition from these sources; deaths or out-migration could even reduce the population. Memory cue: urban “pull factors” such as jobs and services attract migrants.
