Urbanization plays an important role in the economy of a country. But the pattern and the process of urbanization in Bangladesh is very much uneven. So, for the economic development of a country, it is necessary to emphasis on the process and pattern of urbanization. That’s why for my project work I selected my topic on “Population Growth & Urbanization pattern of Mymensingh District” with the help of my supervisor. From my project paper, it is clearly seen that the pattern of urbanization in Mymensingh district is also very much uneven as like as overall scenario of Bangladesh. Among the 12 upazilas of Mymensingh district, Mymensingh Sadar upazila is well developed with municipal facilities that’s why most of the people are concentrated here. On the other hand, Dhobaura upazila is the lowest urbanized area, because of the absence of some common urban facilities. On the other hand, Phulpur upazila ranks 1st position in area measuring scale but has a very low level of urbanization. This study will help to understand the overall scenario of “Population Growth & Urbanization Pattern of Mymensingh District”. This analysis will also play in beneficial role to the proper urban management of the Mymensingh district.
