Overall, it is clear that when the urban and suburban population witnessed a tremendous growth during the given period, the rural population saw a serious setback.
As per the census of 1910, most people in Turkey had their dwellings in the rural areas. This accounted for nearly 60% of the total inhabitants, while 30% lived in the city. Just about a tenth of the people had their accommodation in the suburban areas.
In a period of next 40 years, that is in 1950, both the urban and suburban population rose by 10%, whereas the rural population fell by 20%. The shrinkage of rural population was more tangible in 2010, when only 10% of Turks preferred to live in villages. At the same time, the rate of people lived in urban and suburban areas went up further and hit 60 and 30 respectively.
