Urbanization and its Effects on Socio-Economic and Demographic Aspects in Kirtipur Municipality
(2023) Basnet, Bina; Bishnu G. C.
The study entitled “Urbanization and its Effects on Socio-Economic and Demographic Aspects in Kirtipur Municipality.” Unprecedented population increase, internal migration, and haphazard development efforts in the area have led to urbanization with a lack of infrastructure. Consequently, urbanization in the area pose great impacts on social, economic and demographic sectors. The main purpose of this study was to explore the urbanization and its effects on socio-economic and demographic aspects in Kirtipur municipality. The study was conducted in the Kirtipur Municipality, which has a high rate of urban growth. Both primary and secondary data were collected. Primary data was collected through questionnaires and focus group discussions in ward no. 5, while secondary data was obtained from census reports. Systematic sampling was used for questionnaire. Apart from that locals, local leaders and people representatives were included for focus group discussion. The questionnaire data was analyzed using descriptive methods, while the focus group discussion responses were analyzed qualitatively. The study in Kirtipur-5 found that the area is rapidly urbanizing, with an increasing population size, high population density, and a shift towards non-agricultural occupations. Urbanization has brought both positive and negative socio-economic impacts to the area, including job opportunities, improved access to education and health facilities, and improved transportation and communication, but also economic disparities, social and economic stratification, gender imbalance, overcrowding, traffic congestion, increased crime rates, and smaller living spaces. Demographically, urbanization has led to a higher male to female ratio, declining fertility rates, and a high migration rate, with most migrants being young and seeking job opportunities and better living standards. To mitigate the negative impacts, there is a need for improvement in job opportunities, addressing economic disparities, promoting gender equality, better urban planning, ensuring and improving health and education facilities, and putting in place a better security system. The government and relevant organizations should work towards creating a more inclusive and sustainable urban environment for all residents.
