3. • Urbanization is the migration or natural influx of a
segment of population from rural areas to urban centers.
Simply put, urbanization is urban migration. In the wake
of this migration is the vast area of arable lands in the
countryside that remain idle and uncultivated.
4. • First is they think that urban life would be better-of course
with the presence of better facilities such as schools,
hospitals and infrastructure in general. But having a
better quality of life is not attained simple by moving to an
urban where jobs are available. Yes, there is job
available, but the question is ‘are those who are moving
knowledgeable, skilled and to qualify this jobs?
• Poverty
• Fewer employment opportunities in rural
5. • In the year 2010, more than 60 percent of the total population
live in urban centers around the country-- a burgeoning
population that is constantly growing with urbanization,
increasing urban poverty, burdening problems along urban
health and sanitation, and, on top of these, worsening
economic inequity. Urban management and ecological
systems as well the institutions that are primarily responsible
are almost incapable to answer for the unabated growth in
urban population that has already exerted environmental,
economic and political pressure on governance. Present
concerns related to urbanization include but are not limited to
the following: better education, improved health and sanitation,
higher income levels, housing and transportation,
environmental pollution, and social and economic
infrastructure requirements.
6. • The Philippines has more than 1,608 towns and cities
with a significant number of conversion of municipalities
into cities. In the year 2000, 16 new cities were created
and 15 more were converted in the first half of 2001,
bringing the total number of cities to 115. Just this year,
more cities were proposed to be created. By the year
2020, it is estimated that the country will have more or
less 600 cities and urban centers. This natural tendency
is best illustrated in the virtual farms of Farmville, just in
case you have the opportunity to visit.

8. • the biggest problem regarding mass housing would be
affordability. the minimum wage of filipinos are only
enough for food, clothing and education but shelter will
always take a back seat. there are some non-
governmental organizations that support low cost
housing but they have unwittingly weaken the structural
integrity of the houses by doing away with the building
code.
