public transportation in Turkey


Turkey has about 75 million people population. The recent datas of population indicates us; the number of the people who are living in urban and rural sites has reversed. In 1927, persentage of the people who are living in the rural sites was 25,8 of whole population and urban site had 74,2 percent of Turkey's population. But now when we look at the numbers, 23,2 percent of whole population live in  the rural sites and 76,8 percent of it live in the urban sites. And all these people need to go back their villages to visit elder members of the family in some festival times as traditionally.

When we think about all of this datas and price of cars and oil are so high,  we notice that there should be a well organized public transportation system in Turkey. By the way Turkey is forth country has most expencive oil price.
