III. URBAN COMMUNITY
The term urban simply refers to the region or area which is densely populated
and possess the characteristics of the man-made surroundings.
There are many advantages of life in urban areas like easy access to various
amenities, better transportation facilities, entertainment and education options,
health facilities. Although it suffers certain drawbacks like pollution, caused due to
large scale industrialization and means of transportation like buses, trains, cars and
so on, leading to increasing in health problems in the people living in that area.
An urban area is the region surrounding a city. An area with high density of
population. Urban community is something which an individual thought as, an area
with high density of population, an area with the availability of basic requirements, an
area of good resources, the area has lots of opportunity of employment and such an
area which can be considered as life-giving for luxurious desires of human or
individual. The word urban community has many meanings, the term ‘community’,
only, denotes two conditions:
8
Urban life and personality are affected by the physical and social conditions of
urban living—anonymity, social distance, speed and tension, regimentation,
impersonal social interaction, mobility and transiency etc. These conditions produce
impersonality, insecurity and segmentation of personality, which appear to be
universal characteristics of urbanisation (or urban community) all over the world.
Urban mode of life is quite contrary to traditional rural life, though it has affected
rural life which is also in the process of change. Its characteristics are represented
by the terms ‘urbanism’ and the process of its expansion is called ‘urbanisation’.
A rural area is an open swath of land that has few homes or other buildings, and
not very many people. A rural area’s population density is very low.

• Vernacular is usually spoken
• Wider area
• Influence of blood relationships in decidsion making
• Homogeneous typa of culture

Another important difference between the two human settlements is that while
urban areas are highly populated, rural areas have comparatively less population
than the urban ones. Take a read of this article, in which we’ve compiled the
important point to distinguish the two.

One of the main differences between the formal and informal group is the
process through which some groups are formed.
Structures of a formal group are defined where the hierarchy and flow of
information from one member of the group to the other member is communicated.
This means that there is a chain of command through which instructions are
administered.
Most of the time an informal group does not have structures, but when it does
exist it is mostly not defined. This means that there is no chain of command and the
flow of information from one member to the other.

Formal groups are usually large because they are formed with the purpose of
ensuring that they can achieve goals that measure the success of the company.
Members of a formal group have skills and competencies to handle official activities
on behalf of the company.
Informal groups are comparatively small because close friends or people who
know one another on a personal level form them. This makes it challenging to
assemble many members since not all persons in an organization know one another
at a personal level.
Formal groups are usually stable and are likely to exist for a lengthy period.
Additionally, the task allocated to a formal group may last for a long duration hence
making the formal group exist until the task allocated is completed.
Informal groups are not stable because they are governed by the feelings
between the members. In case the sentiments between members become volatile,
the group is likely to be dissolved.
Another important difference between the two human settlements is that while
urban areas are highly populated, rural areas have comparatively less population
than the urban ones.
