The vertical bar graph illustrates the data on the number of people living in urban areas in five different continents of the world. The data are given for three different years, which are 1950, 2007, and projected for the year 2030.
Overall, it is elucidated that there is substantial growth in the percentage of inhabitants living in urban areas.
Essentially, in 1950, 29% of the world population lived in urban areas throughout the world. Among the five countries, the distributions of the population in urban areas were 15, 17, 51, 42, and 64 percent respectively. Furthermore, the urban people percentage in North America was paramount among the given continents, which was 64% in this year while it was minuscule in Africa with 15%.
Similarly, In 2007, the total urbanities worldwide reached 49%, which was significantly more than it was in 1950. This year the downtown residents’ percentage in Africa was 37% which was minimal among the given counties. Also, in Asia, this percentage was 41%, as compared it was more than 70% for the remaining continents.
Ultimately, it is forecasted that more than half of the world population will live in urban areas in 2030. Moreover, in North America, Latin America, and Hid Europe the urban population would be around 80% whereas it would be slightly more than half of the total population in Asia and Africa.
