Difference between urban and rural areas:

Urban areas:

These areas are large and almost planned settlements fabricated through a process called urbanization. Large and diverse populations reside in these areas. The allocation of natural and man made resources is also properly planned in urban areas. Industrial settlements are more in number than agricultural settlements.

Rural areas:

These areas are comparatively smaller in size and lack proper planning in settlement. The use of natural resources is often unsupervised. These areas also lack modern facilities and amenities. The population of these areas is substantially low and most of the population depends on agriculture and allied activities to make a living.
