Urbanisation

3 Read the text and answer the questions.

People all over the world are moving from rural homes to cities. Urbanisation is when the percentage of people living in cities goes up. This is happening very rapidly in the world today because many people are moving from rural areas to the cities. In 1800, only about 3% of the total world population lived in cities, but now almost half of the people in the world live in cities.

In 1900, only two cities had more than 1 million inhabitants (millionaire cities). Today there are more than 300 millionaire cities in the world.

Megacities have more than 10 million people living there. In 2025, experts think that the world will have 30 megacities.
