Please do not copy-paste my response. These are just ideas to help you get started.

Recall that urbanization is “ the process by which large numbers of people become permanently concentrated in relatively small areas, forming cities” (source: Britannica)

So in short, it’s people moving away from rural areas and towards cities. There’s a lot of reasons you might study it, including

- to understand human history and how human civilization evolved
- to study the impact of urbanization on the environment, like pollution and energy use
- to study the impact on social trends like poverty and crime

I’ll drop some references so you can learn more about it
