Social Issues. Hungary is centred on Budapest in an uneven way. The capital offers much more job opportunities and a higher standard of living than most of the other regions of the country. This means that a lot of people come to live in Budapest, making the city flatten out to the neighbouring smaller municipalities. Everyday distances to the workplace or to the school are increasing. Most of the people try to solve this problem by having one or more cars in the family. Economical prominence of the city attracts newer and newer shopping centres – some of them can be found in the city but most of them on the outskirts. All these centres are designed for a way of living with a car, making the need for an automobile even more “evident”.
