Urban sprawl is a complex socio-spatial phenomenon studied within urban geography, planning, and environmental science. It refers to the outward expansion of low-density, automobile-dependent development from urban centers into surrounding rural and natural lands. This concept investigates the patterns, drivers, and consequences of this dispersed growth, characterized by inefficient land use, fragmentation of landscapes, increased infrastructure costs, and significant environmental and social impacts. Its significance lies in its prevalence as a dominant mode of urban growth globally and its profound implications for sustainability, resource consumption, and quality of life.
