The New Urban Crisis

The New Urban Crisis refers to the challenges faced by cities as they experience rapid growth and inequality. While urban areas can drive economic development and innovation, they also often struggle with issues like rising housing costs, overcrowding, and social divides. This crisis highlights how, despite urbanization bringing opportunities, it can also exacerbate poverty and lead to the displacement of lower-income residents. Addressing these challenges requires thoughtful urban planning and policies that promote inclusivity and sustainability, ensuring that all city dwellers benefit from urban prosperity.
