Trends in urban and rural populations, less developed regions, 1960-2030 (estimates and projections)
Year:
2009
Author:
Hugo Ahlenius, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
According to the latest UN estimates, almost all of the
world’s population growth between 2000 and 2030 will be
concentrated in urban areas in developing countries (Figure
32). By 2030, almost 60% of the people in developing
countries will live in cities (FAO, 2003). If present trends
continue, urban population will equal rural population by
around 2017.
