“The urban poor’s overreliance on social networks for security and support is derived, in part, from the erosion of their trust in government, which is usually warranted.

Together with rising land prices, and poor-quality and crumbling services, they have given rise to a sense of insecurity and social exclusion, which can erode social connectivity.”
