If natural increase is low but total city population is growing fast which conclusion is most likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In-migration is the main source

The direct answer is A: in-migration is the most likely main source. Natural increase is the difference between births and deaths. If that difference is small, births are not adding many more people than deaths. Yet the city population can still grow quickly when people move into the city from villages, towns or other regions for work, education, business or services. Step by step: natural increase is low; the total population still rises rapidly; therefore another component, especially inward migration, must be contributing strongly. Option B is wrong because deaths do not add people. Option C is wrong because the size of an area does not itself create population. Option D is wrong because rainfall may influence living conditions but is not the demographic source described here. Memory cue: city growth comes from natural increase plus migration; if the first is low, look for the second.
