3. The definition of urban varies from country to country, and, with periodic
reclassification, can also vary within one country over time, making direct
comparisons difficult. An urban area can be defined by one or more of the following:
administrative criteria or political boundaries (e.g., area within the jurisdiction of a
municipality or town committee), a threshold population size (where the minimum for
an urban settlement is typically in the region of 2,000 people, although this varies
globally between 200 and 50,000), population density, economic function (e.g., where
a significant majority of the population is not primarily engaged in agriculture, or
where there is surplus employment) or the presence of urban characteristics (e.g.,
paved streets, electric lighting, sewerage). In 2010, 3.5 billion people lived in areas
classified as urban.
4. An urban area is the region surrounding a city. Most inhabitants of urban areas have
non-agricultural jobs. Urban areas are very developed, meaning there is a density of
human structures such as houses, commercial buildings, roads, bridges, and railways.
"Urban area" can refer to towns, cities, and suburbs. An urban area includes the city
itself, as well as the surrounding areas. Many urban areas are called metropolitan
areas, or "greater," as in Greater New York or Greater London. When two or more
metropolitan areas grow until they combine, the result may be known as
a megalopolis. Rural areas, often called "the country," have low population density
and large amounts of undeveloped land. Usually, the difference between a rural
area and an urban area is clear. But in developed countries with large populations,
such as Japan, the difference is becoming less clear.
5. Some urban areas may contain commercial and industrial districts, railway yards,
airports, parks and other uninhabited areas that result in dissemination blocks with
population densities of less than 400 persons per square kilometre.
2. The re-structuring of the industrial sector that has taken place in Hong Kong since the
