Urban Sprawl Question?

King Kenny · 2011-02-23 22:16:44

I have a load of sample answers on the Human Elective; overpopulation, urban growth, migration etc. but I have nothing on urban sprawl. Does anyone have advice as to what I could do? or is urban growth pretty much the same thing?

Sprawl is specifically the spreading of a city out into the surrounding countryside as a result of urban growth, problems include added pressure on resources, villages and towns getting swallowed up by the city, losing identity etc.
