Several of the criteria are:

So, let's say you live in New York City in 1910. What are some of the pros and cons of living in a city compared to the country?
Pros:
-Access to running water
-Closer to doctors and hospitals (which weren't very helpful back then, anyways, but that's a whole different thing)
-More jobs
-More jobs that weren't physically involved
-Near latest technology
-More food
-More luxuries
Cons:
-Disease spreads faster in close conditions
-Losing ability over millenia of farming, and becoming more modern
-Being poor is relatively common
Now, think about modern-day NYC. Why would you want to live there instead of out in the country?
Now, imagine yourself as an early human. There are more opportunities, etc. Why would you want to live in a city vs. the country?
Comparing time periods is a helpful exercise when looking at history, so I helped the NYC example helped with your perspective :)
