> Wirth writes that urbanism is a form of social organization that is harmful to culture, and describes the city as a "Substitution of secondary for primary contacts, the weakening of bonds of kinship, the declining social significance of the family, the disappearance of the neighborhood and the undermining of traditional basis of social solidarity".[10] Wirth was concerned with the effects of the city upon family unity, and he believed urbanization leads to a "low and declining urban reproduction rates ... families are smaller and more frequently without children than in the country". According to Wirth, marriage tends to be postponed, and the proportion of single people is growing, leading to isolation and less interaction.
