Answer 3

In the 1950's rural migration into the city caused a rise in population from 3 million in 1950 to 5.1 million in 1960 to 8.7 million in 1970. Nowadays it has a population of over 21.16 million.

Rural migration into the city and construction of many settlements were made on an unordered fashion; many colonias or boroughs were settled almost overnight, so basic services such as electricity, water, social and security were not available until several years later or never at all.

This persistent lack of basic services is known as spatial inequality.
