City Life

There has been an increased rate of growth for very large cities and for suburban areas of these cities, with decreased rate for cities in general and even positive decreases for down-town areas of many cities. Political problems have centered about: the rural-urban tension over the question of reapportionment and the minority dominance of urban by rural communities; financial and administrative difficulties of certain very large cities; control of the increasing criminality in city life. Zoning and housing legislation proceeded apace; additional housing projects were sponsored by philanthropic and semi-philanthropic agencies
