This process takes place due to increase in population in urban areas and also migration of people from rural areas to urban areas. In 1901, only 10 per cent of the population in Andhra Pradesh lived in urban areas, it was increased to 33.34 per cent by 2011. Out of the 23 districts in Erstwhile Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad is unique with cent per cent urban population. In Andhra Pradesh there are four urban agglomerations (UAs) in 1971 and it increased to 37 by 2011. Among the urban agglomerations Visakhapatnam Urban Agglomeration occupies the top rank with a population of 2,035,922 in the 2011 Census. Among 37 urban agglomerations in the state the smallest urban agglomeration is Bheemunipatnam with a total population of 48,670. The proportion of urban population in Class I cities has increased from 24.38 per cent in 1901 to 75.31 per cent in 2011. The increase in urban population due to industrialization in Andhra Pradesh has resulted into over-crowding and urban poverty.- Reproduced
