In the case of ancient peoples living in agricultural settlements, food surpluses were part of the reason these settlements grew into larger civilizations. A food surplus of a product another settlement lacked became barter material in exchange for other food products the first settlement lacked. Food for gold and silver was another result of selling off a food surplus to nations that needed the food and had gold to spend. Expansion of settlements led to trade and better means of transportation in order to trade a food surplus such as corn for example.
People live in nucleated settlements for reasons like better access to services such as schools and hospitals, more social interaction with neighbors, and opportunities for collective activities like markets and festivals. Nucleated settlements can also provide a sense of security and community that is lacking in more dispersed living arrangements.
Most people in the world live in urban settlements, which include cities and towns. Urbanization has been on the rise globally, leading to a majority of the world's population residing in urban areas.
Approximately 22% of Rio's population live in shanty towns, known as favelas. These informal settlements are often characterized by poor living conditions and lack of access to basic services like sanitation and healthcare.
The population of people living in cold deserts varies depending on the specific region. Cold deserts, such as the Gobi Desert in Mongolia and the Great Basin Desert in the United States, have populations ranging from sparse to moderate, with some areas having small settlements and others being uninhabited.
Farming has freed people to pursue other trades and jobs from being lawyers or doctors, to blacksmiths, builders, scientists, music composers, philosophers, teachers, etc. It's still happening today, as farming has grown so that more food can be produced per acre, leaving more people free to pursue jobs in the cities and towns, then at the end of the day come home to a meal that farmers produced for them.
Well hominids
People living on land with no legal claim to it.
The people of the first settlements were British, so that is why we speak English today and most of the people living in Australia are Christian.
Extra food meant that not everyone had to produce food for a living
Surpluses lead to cities because the people who would be builing the cities became healthier and stronger because they had more food. The population also grew because people had more kids. Food surpluses fed more people. Instead of producing food, the people had more time to have jobs like being an artisan and crafting items.
There are no permanent human settlements on either of the extreme poles.
Farming allowed people to produce more food than hunting and gathering, which led to surpluses. This surplus made it possible for some individuals to specialize in activities other than food production, such as craftsmen or traders, resulting in the need for permanent settlements to accommodate these non-food-producing members of society.

Resettlement is a process that helps people mitigate the effects of displacement on their standard of living.
Food surpluses allowed towns to grow in size and population as they could support more people. It also led to the specialization of labor, with some individuals able to focus on activities other than food production. This helped foster economic and cultural development within towns.
