People moving to cities often settle in shanty towns due to a combination of rapid urbanization, lack of affordable housing, and limited employment opportunities. Many migrants come in search of better livelihoods but find themselves unable to afford formal housing, leading them to occupy informal settlements. Additionally, inadequate infrastructure and government support can exacerbate their living conditions, forcing them into these marginalized communities. Consequently, shanty towns become a refuge for those seeking opportunities in urban areas.
