Istanbul's city planners also have a (likely) greater problem with unplanned rapid expansion. A lot of haphazardly constructed buildings pop up fortnight, squatting empty lots.
This form of expansion is not just at the urban borders, but also within the city. The government has some plans to prevent this and revert the damage, but it's not particularly well-executed.
