Abstract: As populations expand, Urban migration, whereby population flocks to urban center looking for work leaves cities short on affordable housing, transport link and can either lead to inner city poverty or urban sprawl. Increasing demands for urban spaces pushed environment to grow vertical and compact. The customary front yard houses are removed and revamped into vertical housing, losing their greenness and their area. We need to find ways to house people without destroying what's left of our natural environment. Building upward rather than outward empowers us to have tremendous measures of individuals in a little impression, while rationing area and regular assets. We could then utilize the land for food creation, amusement or normal assets, or leave it as a characteristic zone Urban sprawl is basically another word for urbanization. It refers to the migration of a population from populated towns and cities to low density residential development over more and more rural land. The end result is the spreading of a city and its suburbs over more and more rural land. In other words, urban sprawl is defined as low density residential and commercial development on undeveloped land. Migration and urban sprawl aren’t something that is just now becoming popular, as it has been around for quite some time. Cities and their suburbs are now becoming overcrowded because of this. The effects of urban sprawl are even more problematic. The increase in public expenditure, health issues, increased traffic, environmental issues. These issues can be reduced in dense living. The cities that are denser perform the best. The cities like Manhattan, Hong Kong are less in environmental issues compared to other cities.
