In which condition can a city's population grow rapidly?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Job opportunities are abundant and in-migration to the city is also high

Direct answer: A is correct. A city’s population can increase through natural increase and migration. Natural increase occurs when births are greater than deaths, while migration changes the number of residents when people enter or leave. Abundant employment opportunities attract workers, students, and families from rural areas or other cities. If many people move into the city, in-migration adds directly to its population. Thus, strong employment opportunities together with high in-migration can produce rapid urban growth. B is wrong because low births, high deaths, and increasing out-migration all reduce population growth. C is wrong because when more people leave than enter, the city experiences a net loss through migration. D is wrong because fewer jobs and declining in-migration remove an important source of population increase. The correct idea is not that every city with jobs must always grow, but that these conditions strongly support rapid growth when other factors do not counteract them. Memory cue: jobs attract people; arrivals add to the city.
