Development and growth are not the same...
Many cities growth with out order, so that growthing does not impact the standard of living of the citizens and some times this growthing means a low in its quality of life. This phenomena is seen in cities of third world, there the benefits given by the growthing is taken by a very few people.
A city get development when there is growthing in it and order, so the result is an increase in quality of life of the majority of its citizens.
In developed countries the government and institutions are strong, so they can provide all the public goods that must accompany the increase in privates economies.
