In recent years, more people are moving to big cities in search of better job opportunities and a higher standard of living. However, there are several drawbacks to this trend.

One of the most obvious disadvantages of urbanization is the pressure on city infrastructure. As cities grow, their roads and public transport systems can experience congestion and delays. In addition, a large number of vehicles and industrial activities can result in increased pollution levels, which can cause negative health problems for urban residents. Another possible drawback of urbanization is social problems such as the gap between the rich and the poor. Housing can become unaffordable for lower-income families and cause them to live in slums or poor-condition residential areas while other higher-income families live in high-quality living spaces.

Urbanization can also have negative impacts on mental health. The hustles and bustles in cities can be uncomfortable for some people, which may lead to stress, anxiety, and depression. In addition, the cities may lack green spaces and natural environments for citizens to relax and unwind. Finally, urbanization can potentially result in the loss of historic and cultural i ural identity. As cities grow and modernize, there would be more demand for housing and some historic and cultural places of a city might be destroyed to make room for new housing plans.
