23. Gravity Model Predicts the optimal location of a service is directly related to the number of people in the area and inversely related to the distance people must travel to access it Threshold – number of people needed Range – distance willing to travel Hinterland (market area) – area surrounding a service from which customers are attracted

24. Central Place Theory by Walter Christaller in the 1930’s Assumed –region would be flat with no physical barriers –Soil fertility would be equal –Power and purchasing power would be even Utilizes hexagons, rather than circles Studies confirm the distribution of cities, towns, & villages are tied to trade areas, population size and distance

25. Central Place Theory C = city T = town V = village H = hamlet

28. Models of Internal Structure of Cities Burgess HoytHarris & Ullman

30. The Peripheral Model Created by Chauncey Harris Urban area consists of an inner city surrounded by large suburban residential business areas tied together by a beltway or ring road Around beltway are nodes of consumer & businesses – edge cities Edge Cities started out as suburb residences that gained shopping malls then manufacturing & business parks

31. Peripheral Model (contemporary) Edge cities (CBDs on Metro fringe)

38. Europe versus U.S. Cities: Sprawl European cities, including this hypothetical U.K. example, tend to restrict suburban development, thereby concentrating new development in and around existing concentrations. This leaves large rings of open space, so-called greenbelts. What are the social costs of sprawl?

47. You can even bring in the DTM as a way to look at the historical development of urbanization and its effects on nations or the different population distributions in different neighborhoods within a city. –Sarah Bednarz

48. Classify cities by predominant function –Fortress –Entrepot, ports –Resource sites –Central places –Industrial sites –Political or cultural factors
