Abstract:
Algeria has experienced rapid urban growth. Since independence to the present day, the rhythm of this growth has varied from place to place and from time to time, creating an unbalanced urban structure. In an attempt to reduce or reestablish the much-coveted hierarchical and spatial balances, urban policies have focused on the less dense urban centers represented by small towns. The presented article analyzes the case of urbanization in Algeria in three small towns: Azzaba, El Harrouche and Collo, where we studied the urbanization rate, which varies between (0.9-2.54%), the rate of immigration to small towns (7.79-11.04%), equipment and shops.
Keywords: urbanization, small towns, equipment, shops
