Best answer

Settlements can be divided into urban and rural on the basis of their functions.
Rural settlements are smaller than urban settlements.
In rural areas agriculture and allied agricultural activities like livestock rearing, fishing, lumbering etc., are developed.
In urban areas, industries, construction and economic activities like trade, transport and communication, banking and insurance are the important activities.
The development industries need various raw material and services which are supplied by rural areas.
For example, cotton grown in rural areas is supplied to cotton textile industries in urban areas. Everyday many rural people commute to urban areas to work in different activities.
Thus, there is good interrelationship between urban and rural areas since they depend on each other.
