  1. Spatial Models of Urban Land Use (Ch. 13)

  2. Concentric Zone Model 1920s (Burgess) – land-use pattern follows concentric rings around the city center (CBD) Newest settlers in city use older housing near city center. Previous groups move outward to higher-income areas (suburbs)

  3. Concentric Zone Model

  4. Sector Model 1939 (Hoyt) - Land use = pie-shaped wedges radiating from CBD High-income areas along fashionable streets, waterfronts, or on high ground Industry along river or rails Low-income near industry Middle-income between low and high sectors

  5. Hoyt Sector Model

  6. Multiple-Nuclei Model Post WW2 - Early days of suburbanization Downtown CBD not only core of business land use Other nuclei develop - special retail districts, office parks, light manufacturing in city Metro areas develop “suburban downtowns” (called “edge cities”) - Tech Center

  7. Multiple Nuclei Model

  8. APPLYING THE MODELS: • The models help us understand where people with different social characteristics tend to live within an urban area. • The models must be COMBINED to explain why people live where they do.

  9. Hi! I’m Joe!

  10. And I’m John!

  11. Hello! Patty here!

  12. I’m Rose and I’m really busy.

  13. Spatial Models of Urban Land Use (Ch. 13)

  14. CONCLUSION: • Putting the models together we can identify the neighborhood in which people of varying socio-economic backgrounds are most likely to live.
