| dc.description.abstract | Population growth, deterioration of rural invironments, migration and fast urbanization rate affect the socio-economic development and settlement process of any country. The growth of population in developing countries is closely related to the pattern of population distribution in relation to the resource base, wh ich also affects rural-to-urban migration and the urbanization process. Urban poverty, unemployment, inadequate housing, and the prol iferation of squatter settlements along with other urban problems, further aggravate the severity of urbanization problems in Third World countries, including Ethiopia. The malaise of rapid urbanization in many developing countries is evident in rapid growing of unauthorized settlements, the deterioration in many public services, the extreme shortage of housing, pressure on public facilities , and overcrowding in transport and so forth . It is often accompanied by increased unemployment and a worsening of income disparities. Urban growth, if not effectively managed, results in class conflicts, frustration and hatred between "haves" and "have nots" which eventually can lead to political upheaval and chaos. This paper examines prob lems related to rapid urbanization, housing problems and squatter settlements around Nazareth. It also considers the causes for the origin and fast development of the squatter settlements with their future prospects. | en_US |
