Life in the UK Test 36
In the UK, most people live in towns and cities, and only very small parts of Britain are countryside.
Correct Answer: False
False. While it is true that most people in the UK live in towns and cities, it is incorrect to say that "only very small parts of Britain are countryside". In fact, the vast majority of the UK's land area is countryside — including farmland, moorland, forests, mountains and coastline.
Around 80% of the UK population lives in urban areas, but this does not mean the land is predominantly urban. England, Wales and Scotland are all rich with extensive rural landscapes, national parks and areas of outstanding natural beauty.
