Migrants prefer to live in large cities because the facilities for the larger areas are usually better than everywhere else. They feel like where everyone else lives which is the fast world and back in the outback it is slow and boring and you have to travel large distances to buy necessities for the family.
There are places like Chinatown, in Sydney’s Haymarket area, was Sydney’s first urban
Village. Initially it simply occupied Dixon Street and housed many of the local Chinese people who worked in and around Paddy’s Market. Other urban villages exist in Sydney including Paddington, The Rocks and Cabramatta. There are Lebanese people in the area of Bankstown which there are many Lebanese shops nearby convenient for those who live in that area. Also the same thing applies for those who live in Harris Park there are many Indian Products and shops there which is convenient for those people who live in that area. Leichhardt is a place in Sydney which is highly populated of Italians which there is a main street which has many Italian shops.
This is when the large cities show a more multicultural environment, and are often already the home to relatives or friends. At first, there will be a few people from another culture settle in an area, but over time as more and more arrive, they may come to dominate an area. The term invasion refers to this process. Once they dominate the area, succession is said to have taken place. People which are seen may be the same like you which will make the place more populated with the same culture as you.
