Today, 59 percent of Central America's population lives in urban areas, but it is expected that within the next generation 7 out of 10 people will live in cities, equivalent to adding 700,000 new urban residents every year. At current rates of urbanization, the region’s urban population will double in size by 2050, welcoming over 25 million new urban dwellers, calling for better infrastructure, higher coverage and quality of urban services and greater employment opportunities. As larger numbers of people concentrate in urban areas, Central American governments at the national and local levels face both opportunities and challenges to ensure the prosperity of their country's present and future generations. 2016-07-12T16:44:38Z 2016-07-12T16:44:38Z 2016-06-01 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2016/06/26449092/6c-central-america-urbanization-review-making-cities-work-central-america-vol-2-final-report http://hdl.handle.net/10986/24664 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: City Development Strategy Latin America & Caribbean Central America
