  3. The growth of shops on the edge of a town
  4. The decline of a city's population over time
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — An increase in the proportion of people living in towns and cities
Award 1 mark. Urbanisation is about the share of people living in urban areas. Moving out to the countryside is counter-urbanisation, out-of-town shopping is decentralisation, and population decline is the opposite trend.

OCR GCSE Geography: Urban Futures FAQ

Is Kramizo free for OCR GCSE students preparing for Geography?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Urban Futures practice with other Geography topics or even switch to a totally different OCR subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Urban Futures questions aligned to the official OCR GCSE Geography syllabus?
Every question is written against the published OCR GCSE Geography specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real OCR paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from OCR.
How is Urban Futures typically tested on OCR GCSE Geography papers?
Urban Futures appears across multiple question types on real OCR GCSE Geography papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
