An unintended consequence of urban growth is that cities serve to further separate the haves from the have nots. As urban areas expand and develop, economic disparities often become more pronounced, leading to a concentration of wealth in certain areas while marginalized populations may lack access to essential services, resources, and opportunities. This can exacerbate social inequality and create neighborhoods that are starkly divided based on income levels and access to amenities.
