Also, the lack of planning a city more efficiently is one of the most common reasons for urban sprawl. The more the population grows, the more trouble it begins to have on the people and environment. Urban sprawl comes with

commercial activity following the Civil War and the industrialization of the period. During that post-bellum period, cities grew along with a rising population of those residing in the cities.
