9. Summary of Unit  Over 50% of the world’s population lives in cities  Major urban populations today  US, Europe, Russia, Australia, Japan  Largest cities are in LDCs

10. Origin and Evolution of Cities  3500 BC Mesopotamia (Iraq)  3100 BC Egypt  2500 BC Indus River Valley (Pakistan)  1800 BC Northern China  1500 BC Meso-America (Mexico) Urbanization spread in an uneven fashion, usually as a result of long-distance trade.

11. Urbanization  Rural-to-Urban Migration  Movement from countryside to city in search of economic opportunities and a better life  Began with the Industrial Revolution

12. Rapid Urbanization in LDCs  LDCs face the following problems:  Increased levels of pollution and traffic congestion  Shortages of clean drinking water  Insufficient sanitation services  Lack of sufficient electrical power  Lack of enough job opportunities  Strained education and healthcare facilities  Housing shortages  Increased problems with drugs, gangs, and violence

13. Global Cities & Megacities  World City  global economic system  Megacity  over 10 million people  LDCs  High density, poverty  Limited resources World City Rankings 1.NYC 2.London 3.Tokyo 4.Paris 5.Hong Kong 6.Chicago 7.LA 8.Singapore 9.Sydney 10.Seoul

14. Megacities in LDCs  Megacities are indicators of social and economic change in their country and region.  For example, Karachi generates 20% of Pakistan’s GDP and provides 50% of the government’s revenue  Often, these cities are the site of cultural and educational institutions that promote social development, too.

15. Suburbanization  End of World War II  Availability of automobile  40-hour work week  Housing boom  Home loans and affordable mortgages  1970s-1990s  Purchasing power shifted to suburbs  Edge cities  Urban sprawl

16. Primate City and Rank-Size Rule  Primate City  At least 2x as large as next city  Significant / dominant  Mexico City, Paris, London  Former colonial capital cities  Rank-Size Rule  Decrease largely at first, and then slowly  US and Russia

17. Central Place Theory  Christaller’s CPT  Central places provide goods/services to surrounding areas  Assumptions:  flat countryside with no barriers to movement  purchase goods from closest proximity  travel further for luxury goods  Threshold: minimum # of people  Range: how far consumers will travel  Gravity Model  law of spatial interaction based on Newton’s law  Places closer together have a greater attraction

18. Models of Urban Land Use UNITED STATES  CBD  older, central city  Skyscrapers, banks, crowded streets  Concentric Zone Model – Burgess  as the city grows, expands in rings  Bid Rent Curve  land rent is highest closest to CBD  Sector Model – Hoyt  develops along transportation lines  Multiple Nuclei Model – Harris & Ullman  CBD is not the only nucleus

19. Location of Multiple Nuclei  Differential Accessibility  Wholesale requires terminals  Retail requires parking  Land Use Compatibility  Agglomeration (banking, finance)  Land Use Incompatibility  Heavy industry repels high-end residential  Location Suitability  Cost factors

20. Models of Urban Land Use OTHER WORLD REGIONS  Canadian Cities  More compact than US cities  Public transportation  Less suburbanization  Higher incomes than US cities  Western European Cities  Roman/Renaissance architecture, planning  Compact, less sprawl  Public transportation  Mixed zones  Old, historic core – affluent/wealthy  Immigrants live in fringes of cities

21. Models of Urban Land Use OTHER WORLD REGIONS  Eastern European Cities  Centrally planned communist era  Large square with gov’t / cultural buildings  Compact, high density  Mass transit  Residential areas have own services and central square  Latin American Cities  Central city important  periphery poor  Spine of residential area and shops

22. Models of Urban Land Use OTHER WORLD REGIONS  Sub-Saharan Africa  Most rapidly urbanizing region of the world  Inability to provide basic amenities  Clean drinking water, sanitation, disease  High IMR, low life expectancy  North Africa and Middle East  Structural deterioration  Overcrowding, urban sprawl  Sanitation, amenities  High birth rates, high immigrant rates, high unemployment rates

23. Models of Urban Land Use OTHER WORLD REGIONS  Asian Cities  Wave of economic prosperity  20 megacities by 2020  Mega-urban-regions link huge cities together  Government buildings locate near ports

24. Cities in the Developing World  Large informal economic sector  no formal contract, no taxes  Rural migrants  Produce major proportion of country’s GDP  Surrounded by high-density squatter settlements with few amenities

25. Cities in the Developing World  Colonial impact  Centrally planned land-use patterns  Asian cities  Forward capitals  Single, major business district  Purpose of the city = land-use patterns  Ports, industrial, mining center, markets

26. The Urban Economy  Basic Sector  produce goods outside the urban area  Non-basic Sector  Produce goods within urban area  Multiplier Effect  1 new basic job = 2 non-basic jobs  Require more services Total Employment Basic Employment Base Multiplier =

27. Urban Housing  Segregation  Housing density decreases out from CBD  Urban sprawl  Urban renewal  Public housing  Gentrification  New Urbanism, Green Building
