HUMAN GEOGRAPHY

LEARNING OUTCOMES  Understanding Cities in the Global Periphery and Semi-periphery

WHERE ARE THE MOST POPULOUS CITIES?  Mostly located in less prosperous parts  Sao Paulo (Brazil)  Mexico City (Mexico)  Mumbai (India)  Dhaka (Bangladesh)  Delhi (India)

PULL FACTORS TO THE CITY  Opportunities (More often imagined)  Rural Persons  Migrants  Believe there are job opportunities  Primate cities (so no other cities with opportunities)  Stark contrasts exist between rich and poor.

PROBLEMS WITH SHANTYTOWNS  No plumbing  Lots of disease  Ethnically isolated  Typically are found on the out edges of the city  Minimal transportation  Means people congregate in an area  Made of any material found

CORE COUNTRIES VS. PERIPHERY & TRANSPORTATION  Rural migration occurred earlier  Zoning laws prevent shantytowns  Higher levels of transportation  Transportation impacts how a city develops  Developed before or after roads or railroads

GRIFFIN-FORD MODEL CBD district still present Transportation coordinator “Spine is part of CBD” /Elite live next to it Wealthy/middle class stay put and re-invest in their houses Disamenity sector (poorest)
