Why did Iraq and Iran eventually focus their fighting in cities such as Baghdad and Tehran?

This question assumes that the fighting was concentrated in large cities and names Baghdad and Tehran. This is not the case. The majority of the fighting was in rural and quasi-urban territory near the Iraqi-Iranian border and the Iranian Province of Khuzestan. The reason that the war was centered here was that Saddam Hussein's principal war objective was the annexation of Khuzestan Province for Iraq.
