After food, settlement is the most important need of man. Men constructs houses and develop settlements to protect themselves against the vagaries of weather and to enjoy social life. In fact settlement is man's most essential base for adaptation with his physical as well as cultural environment. Housing occupies a most significant place in the problem of welfare of the people. Access to adequate housing is a problem for many urban dwellers. Prices are often higher in cities than rural areas due to higher land prices and labour cost.
