  3. Urban • Urban communities are cities. • There are lots of people living close together in a small amount of space. • There is not very much open space or natural areas.

  4. Urban • Transportation • People often take the bus, train, taxis or walk

  5. Urban • Architecture • Buildings in urban communities are often very tall. • Some buildings are so tall they seem to touch the sky. • These are called “Skyscrapers”.

  7. Rural • Transportation • People usually must drive to places they need to visit, because it is too far to walk. • Sometimes the roads are not paved, so people need special vehicles, like pick-up trucks. • Farms have special types of vehicles, such as tractors.
