-'''Urban decay''' is a process by which a [[city]], or a part of a city, falls into a state of disrepair. It is characterized by [[depopulation]], [[economic restructuring]], property abandonment, high [[unemployment]], fragmented families, political [[disenfranchisement]], [[crime]], and desolate and unfriendly urban landscapes.+

-Urban decay was associated with Western cities, especially [[North America]] and parts of [[Europe]] during the 1970s and 1980s. During this time period, major changes in global economies, [[transportation]], and government policies created conditions that fostered urban decay.+
