Answer 1

The highest percentage of population in urban areas by 2030 will be in more developed regions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest percentage of population in urban areas by the year 2030 will be in more developed regions. Globally, 55 percent of the world's people currently reside in urban areas, with the most urbanized region being North America (82 percent), followed by Latin America/the Caribbean (81 percent), and Europe (74 percent). In comparison, Africa is only 40 percent urbanized, though one of its nations, Nigeria, is projected to significantly urbanize in the coming years.
