The reasoning in the argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument
presupposes without warrant that the health problems that are widespread in any particular city cannot be caused by the living conditions in that city
fails to distinguish between the size of the total population of a city and the size of the geographic region covered by that city
fails to indicate whether average life expectancy is lowered as a result of living in crowded conditions
fails to distinguish between those health problems that are easily treatable and those that are not
fails to take into account that having identical overall population density is consistent with great disparity in living conditions
