ABSTRACT
This study considers the effect of urbanisation on key economic, social and environmental variables. These variables are used to develop indices to measure sustainable development in the urban areas of South-West Nigeria. It is done by assessing the impact of urbanisation and some other driving force of development on urban economic growth and the quality of life and quality of the environment in the area. A thorough review of issues and concerns relating to urbanization economic growth, economic development and sustainable development is made. The review of literature highlights the unique features of urbanisation in South-West Nigeria as well as the drivers of sustainable development. These are incorporated in the formulation of the models and testing of the hypotheses intended in the study. It also permits the construction of indices of sustainable development and urban blight for the area. The models employed are based on the overall hypothesis that constraints on sustainable development in the urban areas of the region arise from low investment in socioeconomic infrastructure, high population density and poor quality of human capital.
