Urbanization can lead to higher or lower relative humidity depending on factors such as the amount of green space and water bodies in the city. The other options are incorrect as urbanization typically leads to the urban heat island effect, which causes an increase in temperature over the city center, and also increases levels of smog. It does not increase rainfall over the city center.
