Urban Historical Demography

Urban Historical Demography is the study of how populations in cities have changed over time, focusing on factors like birth rates, death rates, migration, and social structures. This field examines historical records to understand how cities grow, shrink, or transform, highlighting patterns of settlement, economic shifts, and social dynamics. By analyzing these trends, researchers can gain insights into the lives of urban residents and the historical forces that shaped the development of cities. This approach helps us understand the past and its influence on contemporary urban issues.
