Urban

Urban refers to areas characteristic of a city or town. It encompasses regions that are densely populated with human structures such as buildings, roads, and other infrastructure. The term often implies a lifestyle and social environment that is associated with urban living, which includes economic activities, cultural interactions, and various forms of governance and public services. Urban areas typically feature higher population density compared to rural areas and are hubs of economic activity, innovation, and social services. Urbanization is the process by which rural areas transform into urban areas, often leading to significant changes in demographics, social structures, and environmental impacts.
