What did Louis wirth mean by calling urbanism a way of life?

Louis Wirth described urbanism as a way of life to emphasize how living in cities shapes social interactions, behaviors, and attitudes. He argued that the dense and diverse environments of urban settings foster unique social dynamics, such as greater anonymity, individualism, and a complex network of relationships. This urban lifestyle contrasts with rural living, where social ties tend to be more personal and community-oriented. Ultimately, Wirth highlighted that urbanism significantly influences cultural norms and social structures.
