Which option correctly relates population growth and housing crisis?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Crisis can rise if population grows faster than housing supply

Direct answer: A. Housing demand is created by people who need places to live. If the population increases faster than the number of suitable homes, demand can exceed supply. This imbalance may produce shortages, overcrowding, higher rents or the growth of poorly planned settlements. A is correct because it compares the speed of population growth with the speed of housing supply rather than blaming population alone. B is wrong because houses require land, finance, materials, labour, infrastructure and planning; they do not appear automatically. C is wrong because the number of people affects the number of homes required, even though income, migration, land prices and policy also matter. D is wrong because a declining population does not always increase housing pressure and may reduce demand in some places. Memory cue: housing stress occurs when people grow faster than homes.
