CHAPTER CONTEXT

About Human Settlements

This CBSE Class 12 Geography chapter explains Human Settlements by describing the forms, functions, and problems of places where people live. It covers rural settlements, urban settlements, urbanisation in India, classification of towns, and the problems faced by settlements. The chapter shows how site, situation, occupation, transport, water availability, and economic functions influence settlement patterns.

These ideas are applied in studying village layouts, metropolitan growth, slums, congestion, housing shortages, and service provision. For board exams, school tests, and revision, the chapter is useful for distinguishing rural and urban settlements, explaining town functions, and analysing challenges created by rapid urbanisation and migration.
