Urban Housing and Infrastructure
Urban housing refers to the residential buildings where people live in cities, encompassing various types of structures like apartments, townhouses, and single-family homes. Infrastructure includes the essential systems that support urban living, such as roads, public transportation, water supply, and sewage systems. In urban social geography, the focus is on how these elements interact and influence social dynamics, including access to resources, community development, and the quality of life for residents. Understanding this interplay helps policymakers address issues like housing affordability and equitable access to services in urban settings.
