Megacity: A city with a population exceeding 10 million people.
Suburbanization: The outward expansion of cities into surrounding suburban areas due to factors such as improved transportation and housing availability.
Gentrification: The process by which wealthier individuals move into lower-income neighborhoods, leading to economic changes and displacement of original residents.
