Urban Sociology
Urban Sociology is the study of social life and interactions in urban areas. It examines how cities and towns influence human behavior, relationships, and community structures. Researchers in this field analyze various aspects of urban life, including migration, social inequality, and the impact of urban planning on residents.
This discipline also explores the dynamics of urban neighborhoods, the role of institutions, and the effects of globalization on cities. By understanding these factors, urban sociologists aim to address issues such as housing, crime, and public health in urban settings, contributing to better city planning and policy-making.
