If natural increase is low in a city but rents are rising, which population factor should be checked?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In-migration and housing demand

Correct answer: A. Natural increase is the difference between births and deaths. It does not include people who move into or out of a city. A city may therefore have few births above deaths and still grow because workers, students or families migrate into it. More in-migration can increase competition for houses and raise rents, especially when housing construction does not keep pace with demand. A is correct because it connects migration with the pressure on urban housing. B is incomplete: the death rate alone cannot explain rising rents and ignores migration and births. C may affect settlement in some situations but is not the most direct demographic explanation here. D can influence land use, but it does not directly measure urban population movement or housing demand. Memory cue: natural increase is births minus deaths; migration is movement across a place boundary.
