The statistics from the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) survey (Jan, 2020) revealed that the contribution by smaller cities in rapid urbanization of India is much higher (34% of the total urban population in India lives in small towns of population range 10000 to 100000). Therefore, a sample study to understand the extent and patterns of urbanization in the small towns was carried out. This portfolio tries to put forward the findings from the study of a 1 Sq Km area (Precinct) from the town Shirpur. Shirpur is a small town from Northern Maharashtra showcasing incrementalism and interesting housing patterns.
