🔆 Why Large Cities Attract More Migrants than Smaller Towns
📘 A Developing Country Perspective – UPSC 2024


📍 Migration is skewed towards big cities due to:

Diverse & abundant employment in formal/informal sectors
Example: Mumbai & Bengaluru attract rural youth in tech, finance, construction

Better access to education & healthcare
Example: Delhi’s DU and AIIMS draw families for advancement

Superior infrastructure & logistics
Example: Metro, airports, 24×7 power in Chennai enhance urban appeal

Urban informal economy absorbs unskilled labor
Example: Bihar & UP migrants work in Mumbai’s construction/domestic sectors

Presence of migrant networks & support systems
Example: Malayali migrants in Kochi facilitate Gulf migration links

Urban aspirations & perceived mobility
Example: Media portrayals of progress create a strong “pull effect”


📝 Mains GS1 Question
