home to the complicates bay area fault system; the Hayward fault. The area surrounding the Hayward fault has a very high population density and a major earthquake along this fault could have deviating results. Since the 1868 Hayward fault earthquake‚ evidence of creeping has become very apparent along different areas on the fault. This evidence is proof that stress and energy is building in the fault and is ready to be released at any moment. They San Francisco bay area is no stranger to earthquakes

demonstrates the restrictions placed on high-density areas due to the inability to fund urban growth. The fundamental issue impacted by urban population is the abundance of transport and social facilities that are present in many metropolitan areas. On a similar note‚ increases in traffic use and infrequent services of public transport systems may impact the development of urbanization. The higher demand in quality services may consume more land area‚ ultimately reducing vegetation harming the environment

Regeneration refers to in the investment of capital in the revival of old and declining urban areas either by improving what is left behind or clearing away and rebuilding. Often it may be accompanied by reimaging to change the dominant perception of an urban area. Such regeneration efforts can be seen in the town of Syracuse in New York. Between 1970s to 1990s‚ it started to experience urban decline. Economic decline happened as a result of deindustrialisation. As Syracuse was previously the largest

Republic of China had a total urban population of 712 million or 52.6% of the total population‚ rising from 26% in 1990.[1] In the long term‚ China faces increasing urbanization; according to predictions‚ nearly 70% of the population will live in urban areas by 2035.[2][citation needed] Over the next two decades China will build 20‚000 to 50‚000 new skyscrapers and more than 170 cities will require mass transit systems by 2025.

per annum GDP growth. In the last decade India’s average growth rate was 6.3 per cent (1994–2004) and it aspires to achieve 8 per cent plus growth rate in the coming decade (Table 10.1). Much of this boom has been experienced in the larger urban areas‚ where majority of the industrial production is concentrated. Cities act as engines of economic growth‚ contributing to 60 per cent of the national income. After India embarked upon economic reforms in 1991‚ the percentage of poverty fell from 36 per
