When people move from Rural to Urban areas (Country to City) it is called urbanisation. People often move to the city for better job opportunities, better educational opportunities, better lifestyle, to be closer to family, to get better pay for jobs, etc. Migrating is also a form of Urbanisation. When urbanisation occurs in a city (Jakarta, for example) the population grows and may become a megacity which overtime will always keep growing. Urbanisation has disadvantages but most cities work to find strategies that help the cities and try to make the city as successful as possible.
