Ancient history

What is it called when people from farms moved to cities and grow?

The term commonly used to describe the mass migration of people from rural areas to urban centers during the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th and 19th centuries is 'urbanization.' This phenomenon occurred as advancements in technology, industrialization, and the creation of job opportunities in cities attracted individuals to seek better economic prospects and living conditions. Migration from farms to cities can contribute to the growth and expansion of urban areas, changing the demographics, socioeconomic landscapes, and infrastructure of these cities.
