The bar chart below gives information about the percentage of the population living in urban areas in the world and in different continents

The bar chart compares the percentage of the urban population in five different continents and globally in 1950, 2007, and the projection for the year 2030.

Overall, the percentage of people living in urban areas increased over time, and a great ratio of the world population would live in cities in the future. However, these increment rates are different for each area.

Initially, in 1950, about 29% of the global population lived in urban areas. The majority of these were in American and European continents, while only 15-17% Asian and African lived in cities.

After 57 years, around half of the global population lived in cities. In Europe and America, this ratio went as high as eight out of ten. On the contrary, more than one-third of Africans lived in urban areas this year, while it was slightly over 40% in Asia.

It is projected that six out of ten people around the world will live in urban areas by 2030. This year, more than 80% of Americans would live in the city, while European urban residents share almost the same ratio as the Americans. In Africa and Asia, more than half of the population will start living in urban areas.
