What is urbanization?

Urbanization is when lots of people move from villages to cities, making them bigger and busier.

Imagine your town has only a few houses, a small school, and maybe one park. That's like a village. Now picture that town growing, more houses pop up, there are new roads, stores, and even tall buildings. Soon, it looks like a big city! This growth is called urbanization.

Sometimes, people move to cities because they find jobs there. It's like when you go from playing in the backyard to joining a bigger game at school, more fun, more friends, and more activities!

Cities also get bigger because new people come to live there. They bring their families, and soon there are more schools, parks, and even shopping centers.

A city is like a big, busy neighborhood. It needs roads for cars, lights for the night, and places where people can eat, work, and rest. As more people come, cities add more of these things, just like how you might get a bigger room when your family grows!
