In which situation can crowding and housing pressure increase in a city?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population grows fast and housing construction remains slow

Correct answer: A. Crowding occurs when many people need to use limited space and services. If a city's population grows quickly but new houses are built slowly, the number of available homes does not keep pace with demand. Existing homes may become overcrowded, rents may rise, and some people may live in inadequate conditions. Option A describes both parts of the problem: rapid population growth and slow housing supply. B would generally reduce pressure because fewer people and more houses are present. C would tend to reduce population growth because people are leaving and births are low. D describes an empty city, so there would be no crowding. Memory cue: pressure rises when demand grows faster than supply.
