1. Population, fertility, mortality rates calculation:
For crude birth rates, to pick an example, the rate is calculated by this: (annual births/population) x 1000
So is the population term the initial population at the beginning of the year or the final population at the end of the year?
2. What's the difference between urban sprawl and suburbanization?
I see that in contrast to suburbanization, urban sprawl is a much more negative term since it harms the environment (cutting down trees) and increased residential segregation
But then, as TPR says, "white flight" is a type of suburbanization in which whites from the racially diverse cities move to more racially homogenous suburban areas; wouldn't this also cause environmental disruption and residential segregation?
