| Abstract | It took more than ten thousand years, up to 1960, for the world‟s urban population to reach one billion people. The next billion was achieved in 25 years (1960-1985) and the third billion 17 years (19852002). The increase in urban populations from three billion to four billion took only 10 years (20022012) [1]. Urbanization, the migration of people from rural to urban locations, is among the most important economic and social changes occurring in lowand middle-income nations. Population size and its rate of change in urban centres are influenced not only by international and national factors but also by local factors related to the particular local context such as site, location, natural resource endowment, demographic structure, existing economy and infrastructure (the legacy of past decisions and investments) and the quality and capacity of public institutions [2]. |
