False.
An increase in the number of people living in urban areas does not automatically reduce urban sprawl. Whether sprawl increases or decreases depends on how that growth is accommodated—through higher-density infill and transit-oriented development (which can reduce sprawl) or through outward, low-density expansion and suburbanization (which increases sprawl). Land-use policies, zoning, transportation investments, and housing supply all determine the outcome.
