If a metropolis has low natural increase but housing demand is rising fast, which component should be checked?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In-migration

Direct answer: A, in-migration. Natural increase is births minus deaths, so a low natural increase means births and deaths are contributing little net growth. A metropolis can nevertheless attract people from villages, smaller towns, or other regions. These newcomers increase the population needing homes, transport, water, and other services. Therefore, rapidly rising housing demand should prompt an examination of in-migration and, where relevant, the number of households and temporary residents. B is incomplete because death rate alone cannot explain the added housing demand. C and D are physical-environment factors, not the demographic component most directly indicated by the situation. Out-migration would generally reduce local population pressure, although other housing factors can also matter. Memory cue: when a city grows faster than its natural increase suggests, look at movement into the city.
