Answer:

Option D, All of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

The urban population is increasing day by day and the major cause of this population growth is inflow of immigrant population from different villages, cities and country. Most of these people coming to the urban areas are either student (who are single and childless) or young people (who are also single and childless) for study purpose or for job. However, being childless and unmarried is becoming a common life style of today’s modern world.

The people residing in these cities are mainly living there only for their jobs , whether they like it or do not like it and hence they are referred as trapped.

Therefore, the correct answer is option D, All of the above

The correct option is ALL OF THE ABOVE.
There are five categories of urban residents, they are: the ethnic villagers, the unmarried and childless people, the trapped and the downward mobile, the cosmopolites and the deprived. This classification is based on the work of Gans.
