the migration of people from central cities to suburbs

The correct definition of suburbanization is:

- The migration of people from central cities to suburbs.

The correct answer is: the migration of people from central cities to suburbs.

To arrive at this answer, let's break down the options and understand each one:

Option 1: "the migration from the rural hinterland to suburbs"
This option describes the movement of people from rural areas to suburbs. However, the key term in the definition of suburbanization is the migration from central cities to suburbs, rather than from rural areas.

Option 2: "the migration of people from central cities to suburbs"
This option accurately describes suburbanization. Suburbanization refers to the movement of people from central cities to the surrounding suburbs, often resulting in the growth and development of these suburban areas.

Option 3: "the migration of people from outside a hinterland to central cities"
This option describes the movement of people from outside a hinterland, which is the surrounding area of a central city, to the central cities themselves. While this may involve migration, it does not capture the essence of suburbanization, which specifically refers to the movement to suburbs.

Option 4: "the increase in size of a hinterland to include more rural areas"
This option describes the expansion of a hinterland, which is the surrounding area of a central city. While this expansion may involve the inclusion of more rural areas, it does not directly relate to the migration of people from central cities to suburbs.

Therefore, the correct option is Option 2: "the migration of people from central cities to suburbs."
