Question

Hint:

Goa is most urbanized by proportion—over 62%.

Answer 1

According to the 2011 Census, Goa is the most urbanized state in India, with over 62% of its population living in urban areas. This high urbanization is due to tourism, strong infrastructure, trade, and service industries. While Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu have larger total urban populations, Goa leads in percentage terms. High urbanization brings advantages such as better job opportunities and services but also leads to environmental pressure and rising land prices.
