Some push factors are lack of economic opportunity, lack of healthcare, not as many education opportunities. Some pull factors would be more economic opportunities and family ties.
When people rush of people moves from rural areas to urban settings then cities need to change their infrastructure so they have a bigger carrying capacity. That leads to gentrification.
Infrastructure is the basic organizational society structure that is needed to keep the city/society up and running. Gentrification is the process to improve and/or renovate a house, building, or area. Carrying capacity is how many people a sciciety can support.

Globalization & Trade
Globalization is how countries and people integrate and interact. It impacts politics and culture by exposing people to new ideas and things. For example, the new Avengers movie (Endgame?) is a great example of globalization because they filmed at different places all over the globe and exposed the viewers to new places and ideas.
Trade is also part of globalization because the goods that we trade (export and import) were made through the global supply chain
-
Trade is how we get goods, services, and money/capitol/investment. We get them by importing and exporting what our country specializes in. Which tends to be what they have a comparative advantage of.
