Which effect has poverty had on Latin American nations?
A: urban-to-rural migration
B: shift to subsistence farming
C: growth of shantytowns
D: reduction in trade

Respuesta :

The answer is C: Growth of shantytowns

Poverty in Latin American countries has driven millions of people from rural areas to cities in search for better means of income.

However, expensive real-estate, low income and an influx of such a large population has given rise to numerous Shanty Towns in Latin American cities.

In some of the largest cities such as Brasilia, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Santiago, and São Paulo, Shantytowns are a fixed feature of the city.
