A city is an urban area. Urban areas always have a greater population density.
One key difference is population density. Urban communities tend to have higher population density with more people living in a smaller area, while rural communities have lower population density with fewer people living over a larger area.
Any place that is not in a city is in a rural area.
Urban area: High population density Suburban area: Moderate population density Rural area: Low population density
A country or countryside of an area, or a area with a low population density.
The population density in LA continues to increase despite the many suburbs. The Asian country with the greatest population density is Bangladesh.
In urban areas, energy usage tends to be higher due to higher population density and greater demand for services and transport. In rural areas, energy usage is lower overall, but the reliance on fossil fuels for heating and transportation can be higher due to limited access to alternative energy sources. Additionally, rural areas may also have more decentralized energy systems, such as solar panels or wind turbines.
Features of a rural area typically include lower population density, agricultural activities, natural landscapes, limited infrastructure and services, and a close-knit community.
The number of people in an area divided by the land area in square kilometers (KM²) is known as population density. It is a measure that indicates how crowded or sparsely populated a region is, expressed in people per KM². Population density can provide insights into urban planning, resource allocation, and environmental impact. Higher density often correlates with urban areas, while lower density is typical in rural regions.
A city has a higher population density.
A rural region is an area of low population density where people mainly live on farms and the country sides and also live far from the cities. A rural region is a place full of farm area and a lot of wide open spaces.
Rural areas are generally known to have very few buildings or less expensive looking buildings. There is sparse population density and a lack of industries.
The term "rural" refers to an area of low population density, typically with most of the land used for agriculture. The term "urban" refers to an area of high population density, with most of the land mass given over to cities, with their manufactured structures (buildings, roadways, factories). People tend to use "rural" to mean an area in the country, while "urban" is used to mean an area devoted to a large city.
