The bar chart below gives information about the percentage of the population living in urban areas in the world and in different continents. v. 2
The given bar graph gives data on the number of people living in urban areas in different continents of the world. The data are given for three different years, i. e. 1950, 2007 and projected for the year 2030.
As is presented from the given data, initially in 1950, on an average 29% people of the world lived in the urban area. In this year, the highest percentage of the population lived in urban areas were in North America which was 64%. In Africa and Asia, these percentages were lowest (15 and 17 percentage respectively). Half of the Europeans lived in urban areas while this percentage was 42% in Latin America. After 57 years in 2007, the percentage of urban area population reached to 49% in the world. North America again had the highest percentage of the population who lived in urban areas. The lowest percentage was in Africa (37%) and in other continents, the percentages were around 40 to 70. The percentage of the population lived in urban areas increased significantly in 2007 compared to the percentages of 1950.
It is projected that 60% of the world population would live in urban areas in the year 2030. This percentage would be more than 80 in both of the American continents. In Europe, this would increase to 78 and both in Asia and Africa around half of their population would live in urban areas.
In summary, the percentage of people lived in urban areas increased over time and more and more people would be living in urban areas over time.
The
given
bar graph gives data on the number of

in
different
continents of the
world
. The data are
given
for three
different
years,
i. e.
1950, 2007 and projected for the
year
2030.
As
is presented
from the
given
data,
initially
in 1950, on an average 29%
people
of the

lived
in the
urban
area
. In this
year
, the highest
percentage
of the
population
lived
in
urban
areas
were in North America which was 64%. In Africa and Asia, these
percentages
were lowest (15 and 17
percentage
respectively
). Half of the Europeans
lived
in
urban
areas
while this
percentage
was 42% in Latin America. After 57 years in 2007, the
percentage
of

population
reached to 49% in the

increased
significantly
in 2007 compared to the

of 1950.
It
is projected
that 60% of the
world
population
would
live
in
urban
areas
in the
year
2030. This
percentage
would be more than 80 in both of the American continents. In Europe, this would increase to 78 and both in Asia and Africa around half of their
population
would

areas.
In summary, the
percentage
of
people
lived

increased over time and more and more
people
would be living in

over time.
