If a city has high in-migration but housing and water planning is slow, what will be the main problem?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure on housing and water will increase

The direct answer is A. In-migration means people are entering the city from elsewhere. These additional residents need homes, drinking water, sanitation and other urban services. If planning and construction do not keep pace with the incoming population, demand will exceed available supply, creating pressure on housing and water. This may appear as overcrowding, higher competition for homes or inadequate access to water, but the question asks for the main general problem. B is wrong because in-migration adds people rather than automatically reducing the population. C is wrong because slow planning does not cancel the demographic effect of migration. D is plainly wrong because migration cannot make the city’s geographical area zero. The key is to connect population movement with service demand. Memory cue: more people arriving means more demand immediately.
