  2. False
Explanation
Answer - A - True.

Key Takeaway: When a country’s economy develops, a smaller percentage of the workforce will remain in agricultural settings. This is usually due to technological developments and urbanization. People move into cities to seek economic opportunities. Living in cities permits individuals and families to take advantage of the opportunities of diversity in populations, access to the arts, and competition among business and educational institutions. Usually, when a country’s economy becomes more highly-developed, there are fewer opportunities for jobs in rural areas.
