As a Class-I city, located in the most populated state (Uttar Pradesh) of India, Aligarh has gained in importance due to its proximity to the national capital (New Delhi) and Uttar Pradesh?s industrial cities (Kanpur and Ghaziabad). The 2011 census showed that of the total population of the district, 33.1 per cent was urban (872,575 residents). Projections by the Town and Country Planning Department suggest that the city will have some 1.2 million inhabitants and there will be a need for another 64,000 houses. Thus, the city will expand extensively into its urban fringe, which is expected to entail large-scale transformations. The expansion of the city will significantly influence nearby villages in terms of land use and population, both physically and socio-economically. 410 0$aThe Urban Book Series,$x2365-7588 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEthnology 606 $aCulture 606 $aUrban Sociology 606 $aSustainability 606 $aRegional Cultural Studies 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aUrban Sociology. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aRegional Cultural Studies. 676 $a307.760954 700 $aBanu$b Nasrin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064992 702 $aFazal$b Shahab$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254139003321 996 $aLivelihood and Wellbeing in the Urban Fringe$92542188 997 $aUNINA
