Human Settlements

Human settlements refer to communities where people establish homes and live together, ranging from small villages to large cities. They develop to meet social, economic, and infrastructure needs, providing spaces for residence, work, education, and commerce. The layout and design of these settlements influence quality of life, accessibility, and sustainability. Factors like geography, resources, technology, and culture shape how settlements grow and evolve over time. Well-planned settlements promote efficient use of land, transportation, and services, supporting healthy and vibrant communities.
