  • Title: Urbanization in Central Java and Yogyakarta.
    Author: Soehartadji.
    Journal: Majalah Demografi Indones; 1980 Jun; 7(13):31-56. PubMed ID: 12265182.
    Abstract:
    The author examines urbanization in the provinces of Central Java and Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Changes in the number and definition of rural and urban areas and in the proportion of the population living in these areas between 1930 and 1971 are analyzed. Causes of urbanization are then discussed, with attention to income levels, push and pull factors, and trade and communication. The study reveals that the rate of urbanization is comparatively low because economic conditions in the cities and towns of Central Java and Yogyakarta are less favorable than in the urban areas of other provinces, with the result that migrants tend to choose destinations in these other provinces.
