Assessed infrastructure development and population density shifts
Urbanization rates ranged from 2.8% to 4.2% annually
Significant increases observed in residential and commercial areas
Green space decreased across all cities
Infrastructure development included transportation network expansions
Growing population density necessitates better land use and planning
