Why are People Moving to Cities? Crash Course Geography #45

According to the UN, people living in urban places now outnumber those in rural areas — which is a pretty new phenomenon for many parts of the world. So today, we’re going to discuss factors that have led to this shift in populations from rural to urban residences (known as urbanization), and we’ll examine the historical and structural systems, like colonialism and Central Place Theory, that have influenced the cities we see today.

Correction:
3:20 On the map here we incorrectly placed the Shanghai marker where Guangzhou is located.
