The given chart depicts the demographics of the urban and rural of the world between 1950 and 2030.
Overall, while the total number of the world population and urban citizens were increasing continuously and is predicted to reach the peak in the next 10 years, the rural population is forecast to have a significant downward trend in the future.
In 2020, the total population has risen to around 7. 5 billion people which almost three times as high as the figures in 1950 just nearly 2. 5 billion. Besides, from 2020 to 2030, the world population is expected to slightly increase with the most incredible number of 8 billion.
In the first year of the period, the population living in urban areas is four times as low as the population living in rural areas, nearly 0. 5 billion and 2 billion respectively. The number of rural people increased marginally throughout the period and then remained steady until 2005. During 2005-2030, it is predicted a significant decline to 2. 7 billion citizens. In the meantime, the number of city dwellers had a gradual increase over the years, exceeding the rural population in 2010, and is predicted to have a rapid surge to more than 4. 5 billion.
