Unit 6: Cities and Urban Land-Use Patterns and Processes Study Guide UNIT 6: CITIES AND URBAN LAND-USE PATTERNS AND PROCESSES 12-17% AP Exam Weighting The presence and growth of cities vary across geographical locations because of physical geography and resources. Site and situation factors influence the origin, function and growth of cities. ! Site Factors: availability of water, food, good soils, a quality harbor, and characteristics that make a location easy to defend from attack ! Situation Factors: external elements that favor the growth of a city, such as distance to other cities, or a central location. Changes in transportation and communication, population growth, migration, economic development, and government policies influence urbanization. ! Economic development: Changes in economic structure - Industrial Revolution (19th century) and growth of services (20th century) led to the growth of cities o Work in factories and services located in cities o Need for fewer farmers pushes people out of rural areas o migration from the countryside to urban areas for jobs ! Population growth: high natural increase rates in LDCs leads to the growth of cities ! Transportation: John R. Borchert during the 1960s developed a view of the urbanization of the United States that is based on epochs of technology. As the components of technology wax and wane, the urban landscape undergoes dramatic changes. o Stage 1: Sail-Wagon Epoch (1790–1830) " cities grew new ports and major waterways which are used for transportation. The only means of international trade was sailing ships. Once goods were on land, they were hauled by wagon to their final destination. o Stage 2: Iron Horse Epoch (1830–70) " characterized by the impact of steam engines, technology, and development of steamboats and regional railroads. o Stage 3: Steel Rail Epoch (1870–1920) " dominated by the development of long- haul railroads and a national railroad network. o Stage 4: Auto-Air-Amenity Epoch (1920–70) " with growth in the gasoline combustion engine. o Stage 5: Satellite-Electronic-Jet Propulsion (1970–?) " also called the High Technology Epoch. This stage has continued to the present day as both transportation and technology improves Megacities and metacities are distinct spatial outcome of urbanization increasingly located in countries of the periphery and semiperiphery. ! Megacity:: Urban settlement with a total population in excess of 10 million people ! Metacity: has more than 20 million people o Only 3 of the 11 metacities are in developed countries: Tokyo, Seoul, New York Processes of suburbanization, sprawl, and decentralization have created new land-use forms – including edge cities, exurbs, and boomburgs – and new challenges. ! Suburbanization is a population shift from central urban areas into suburbs, resulting in the formation of urban sprawl. ! Suburban Sprawl: progressive spread of development over the landscape ! Decentralization is the process by which the activities of an organization, particularly those regarding planning and decision making, are distributed or delegated away from a central, authoritative location or group to a more local authority. ! Edge Cities: Large commercial centers that offer entertainment and shopping in the suburbs. o outside a traditional downtown or central business district, in what had previously been a suburban residential or rural area o Such cities may approach 100,000 in population. ! Exurb: rings of wealthier rural communities that grew just outside of the suburbs and were hotbeds for continued urban growth and development ! Boomburg: one of the countless cookie-cutter suburban communities that sprung up like mushrooms during the housing booms of recent decades. o rapidly growing, sprawling city of 100,000 or more on the edge of a major metropolitan area. ! Other challenges of suburban sprawl: o Inefficient (leapfrogging) o High cost o Wastes land o Reduces ability to get to the country o Dairy products and fresh produce o Segregation o Dependence on transportation World cities function at the top of the world’s urban hierarchy and drive globalization. Cities are connected globally by networks and linkages and mediate global processes. ! Urban hierarchy: A hierarchy that puts cities in ranks from small first-order cities upward to fourth-order cities, which are large, world-class cities. ! The higher the order of the city, the greater the sphere of influence that city possesses on a global scale. ! WORLD CITIES: The most important cities as defined by Saskia Sassen, based on their economic, cultural, and political importance: New York City, London, and Tokyo. Principles that are useful for explaining the distribution and size of cities include rank-size rule, the primate city, gravity, and Christaller’s central place theory. ! In many MDCs, geographers observe that ranking settlements from largest to smallest (population) produces a regular pattern or hierarchy. ! RANK SIZE RULE = the country’s nth-largest settlement is 1/n the population of the largest settlement. ! PRIMATE CITY = The largest settlement has more than twice as many people as the second-ranking settlement. In this distribution, the country’s largest city is the primate city. ! Why does this matter? o A regular hierarchy – as in the United States – indicates that the society is sufficiently wealthy to justify the provision of goods and services to consumers throughout the country. Quick access to services o LDCS – primate-city rule. There is not enough wealth in the society to pay for a full variety of services. Absence of middle size settlements constitutes a hardship for people who must travel long distances to reach an urban settlement with shops and services such as hospitals Advantages of a Primate City Disadvantages of a Primate City ! Magnetic attraction for businesses, services ! Urban-rural inequalities and people (cumulative effect) ! Imbalance in development ! Can attract international trade and business ! Concentration of Power ! Centralize transportation and communication ! Has a parasitic effect, sucking ! Enhanced flow of ideas and information among wealth, natural and human larger populations resources into city. ! Ability to offer high-end goods due to increased ! Become centers for threshold unemployment, crime, pollution Improving Rank-Size Distribution: ! Limit the growth of largest city ! (Permits to move there) ! Government can build new apartments, schools, shops, electricity, paved roads, sanitation ! Give people greater access to services " Periodic Markets ! Central Place Theory: Christaller argues that urbanized areas are arranged in a regular pattern across the landscape. Assumptions: - no geographic boundaries (flat land) - humans will always purchase goods from the closest place that offers the good - whenever demand for a certain good is high, it will be offered in close proximity to the population Central Place Theory. This diagram represents an idealized urban hierarchy in which people travel to the closest local market for lower-order goods, but must go to a larger town or city for higher orders goods. ! Central place: market center for the exchange of goods and services by people attracted from the surrounding area ! Hinterland: the area surrounding a service from which consumers are attracted ! Range: maximum distance people are willing to travel to use a service. The range is the radius of the circle drawn to delineate a service’s market area ! Threshold: minimum number of people needed to support the service. Every enterprise has a minimum number of customers required to generate enough sales to make a profit. Models and theories that are useful for explaining internal structures of cities include the Burgess concentric zone model, the Hoyt sector model, the Harris and Ullman multi-nuclei model, the galactic city model, bid-rent theory, and urban models drawn from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa. CONCENTRIC ZONE MODEL ! A city grows outward from a central area in a series of concentric rings ! Size and width vary, but basic types of rings appear in all cities in the same order SECTOR MODEL ! Hoyt ! City develops in a series of sectors, not rings ! Certain areas of the city are more attractive for various activities because of environmental factor or by chance ! As city grows, activities expand outward in a wedge, or sector, for the center ! Once a district is established, new additions are built on edge of the district and extend further out from the center MULTIPLE NUCLEI MODEL ! Harris and Ullman ! A city is a complex structure that includes more than one center around which activities revolve ! Examples of nodes: port, neighborhood business center, university, airport, park ! Activities are attracted to particular nodes, whereas others try to avoid them o University node may attract well- educated residents, bookstores o Airport node – hotels, warehouses o Heavy industry and high class housing will rarely exist in the same neighborhood GALACTIC MODEL/PERIPHERY MODEL: ! Modification of multiple nuclei model by Harris ! Takes into account suburbanization ! Nodes of business form on the periphery/outside ! Tied together through beltways, new transportation Latin America: ! Griffin/Ford Model ! Large plaza at the middle ! Boulevard for the cities elite ! Housing for wealthy and powerful as spines from center ! No middle class, poor develop rings on the outside ! Squatter settlements Sub-Saharan Africa: ! Least urbanized but most rapidly urbanizing ! Three CBDS: colonial, traditional, periodic market Southeast Asian: ! contains some of the most populous

  • Sscott Megacities S Paulo Rio Edv2
    Megacities: A Study of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro Grade Level: 9-12 Subject: Geography, World History Key Words: megacities, urban design Time Frame: 1-2 days Designed by: Sharlyn Scott School District: Desert Vista High School Summary: Using São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro as case studies to research and compare/contrast, students will gain a greater understanding of basic urban geography and the history and geography of Brazil. Background Information: Megacities are urban conglomerations with populations exceeding 10 million; sources vary on exactly how many global cities (and their urban sprawl) can be categorized as such. According to the United Nations, there were an estimated 37 cities with more than 10 million people in 2015, compared to just 14 in 1995, and they estimate there will be 41 (maybe as many as 43) megacities by 2030. Two of the three megacities in Latin America are in Brazil: São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. For more information about megacities, São Paulo, and Rio de Janeiro, see: • Blakemore (2016) “Five Things to Know About Megacities” (Smithsonian): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/five-things-to-know-about- megacities-180958937/ • Catalytic Communities “Favela Facts”: http://catcomm.org/favela-facts/ • "São Paulo: South America’s Megacity”: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=sNEeY_gXFBc Student Objectives Students will be able to • Consider the needs of human populations within a city (their own as an introduction) and what challenges/successes city planners and leaders, as well as the population of that city, experience. • Research characteristics of the physical geography and human geography of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in order to create together a clearer picture and understanding of these two megacities in Brazil, and the successes/challenges both have experienced.

  • Megacities and Tall Buildings: Symbiosis
    E3S Web of Conferences 33, 01001 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20183301001 HRC 2017 Megacities and tall buildings: symbiosis Daniel Safarik1*, Shawn Ursini1 and Antony Wood1 1Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, 104 South Michigan Ave., Suite 620, Chicago, IL, 60603, United States Abstract. Anyone concerned with the development of human civilization in the 21st Century will likely have heard the term «megacity». It is – as it should be – increasingly prevalent in both mainstream and academic discussions of the great trends of our time: urbanization, rising technological and physical connectivity, increasingly polarized extremes of wealth and poverty, environmental degradation, and climate change. It is a subject as large and far-reaching as its name implies. This paper sets the scene on how megacities and the built environment are growing together, and examines the implications for those who plan, design, develop and operate tall buildings and urban infrastructure. 1 What is a Megacity? In order to rationalize the data CTBUH collects – predominantly on skyscrapers and large urban developments – with that collected by other organizations, first a definition that reflects a distillation of the prominent literature on the subject should be set forth: A megacity is an urban agglomeration with a total population of 10 million people or greater, consisting of a continuous built-up area that encompasses one or more city centers and suburban areas, economically and functionally linked to those centers. A megacity is typically, though not always, polycentric, with multiple nodes of concentrated urban activity and high-density development, rather than being centered around one large primary central business district (CBD).

  • Megalopolitan Manila : Striving Towards a Humane and World Class Megacity
    Megalopolitan Manila : Striving Towards a Humane and World Class Megacity Ruben G. Mercado1 1. Introduction In 1990, Metro Manila, with 7.9 million population, ranked 18th among the largest urban agglomeration in the world. By the turn of the century, it is expected to reach 11.8 million and will rank 20th of the 28 identified megalopolises or megacities in the world.2 (UNU, 1994). The long-term development vision for Metro Manila is encapsulated in the title of the region’s 1996-2016 physical framework development plan “Towards a Humane World-Class Metropolis” (MMDA, 1996). The yardsticks for the attainment of this vision can be derived from the two key words: humane and world-class. A humane metropolis is where its people, residents or otherwise, enjoy the basic amenities of urban living – shelter, security, employment, healthy and aesthetically pleasing environment, mobility, communication and personal recreation. A world-class metropolis connotes a metropolitan settlement where infrastructure and services are considered world standard in terms of level of sophistication and intelligence, efficient and highly qualified to cater to international functions. Recent literature on defining or classifying cities in the context of a global economy suggested key features for cities to be considered world class mostly based on urban functions. Friedmann (1995) suggests four criteria: numbers of headquarters of international institutions, rapid growth of the business services sector, major transportation modes, and existence of a major financial center. Simon (1995) lists three criteria: the existence of a sophisticated financial service complex serving a global clientele, a level of international networks of capital information and communication flows, and a quality of life conducive to attracting and retaining skilled international migrants.

  • Supersized Cities China's 13 Megalopolises
    TM Supersized cities China’s 13 megalopolises A report from the Economist Intelligence Unit www.eiu.com Supersized cities China’s 13 megalopolises China will see its number of megalopolises grow from three in 2000 to 13 in 2020. We analyse their varying stages of demographic development and the implications their expansion will have for several core sectors. The rise and decline of great cities past was largely based on their ability to draw the ambitious and the restless from other places. China’s cities are on the rise. Their growth has been fuelled both by the large-scale internal migration of those seeking better lives and by government initiatives encouraging the expansion of urban areas. The government hopes that the swelling urban populace will spend more in a more highly concentrated retail environment, thereby helping to rebalance the Chinese economy towards private consumption. Progress has been rapid. The country’s urbanisation rate surpassed 50% for the first time in 2011, up from a little over one-third just ten years earlier. Even though the growth of China’s total population will soon slow to a near standstill, the urban population is expected to continue expanding for at least another decade. China’s cities will continue to grow. Some cities have grown more rapidly than others. The metropolitan population of the southern city of Shenzhen, China’s poster child for the liberal economic reforms of the past 30 years, has nearly doubled since 2000. However, development has also spread through more of the country, and today the fastest-growing cities are no longer all on the eastern seaboard.

It defines exurbs as communities located on the urban fringe that have at least 20 per- cent of their workers commuting to jobs in an urbanized area, exhibit low housing density, and have relatively high population growth. Using demographic and economic data from 1990 to 2005, this fledged suburbs, study reveals that: ■ As of 2000, approximately 10.8 million people live in the exurbs of large metropolitan areas. This represents roughly 6 percent of the population of these large metro areas. These exurban but no longer areas grew more than twice as fast as their respective metropolitan areas overall, by 31 percent in the 1990s alone.

According to 2010 census of population Metro Manila accounts about one-third of the total urban population and about 13% of the total national population of Philippines.The impact of urban growth of the Metro Manila to its urban environment relating on demography, solid wastes problem and problems in water bodies as well as air pollution and greenhouse gas emissionis emphasized here in this study.The flood prone areas within the Metro Manila is about 31%, most of the risk areas located along creeks, river banks or coastal areas.Metro Manila produces total garbage equivalent to 25% of the national waste generation in which about 17% is paper wastes and about 16% are plastics. In terms of water quality classification the upper reaches of the Marikina River is of Class A, but all remaining river systems are of Class C. Accordingly, the classification of Manila Bay is of Class SB. Similarly, the quality of ambient air of the Metro Manila is also poor. Using 2010 as base year, the major contributor to greenhouse gas is from vehicular emissions followed by the stationary sources. An urgent need is felt to incorporate environmental issues into planning its urban area to reduce the risks of further environmental degradation.

    9. Metro Manila, Philippines Theresa Audrey O. Esteban and Michael Lindfield 9.1 INTRODUCTION Metro Manila, the National Capital Region of the Philippines, is the seat of government and the most populous region of the Philippines. It covers an area of more than 636 square kilometres and is composed of the City of Manila and 16 other local government units (15 cities and one municipality) (). As the city has grown, the local government structure has led to a polycentric system of highly competitive cities in the metropolitan region. The impact of rapid urbanization on the city has been dramatic. Metro Manila is the centre of culture, tourism, Figure 9.1 Map of Metro Manila the economy, education and the government of the Philippines. Its most populous and largest city in terms of land area is Quezon City, with the centre of business and financial activities in Makati (Photo 9.1). Other commercial areas within the region include Ortigas Centre; Bonifacio Global City; Araneta Centre, Eastwood City and Triangle Park in Quezon City; the Bay City reclamation area; and Alabang in Muntinlupa. Among the 12 defined metropolitan areas in the Philippines, Metro Manila is the most populous.427 It is also the 11th most populous metropolitan area in the world.428 The 2010 census data from the Philippine National Statistics Office show Metro Manila having a population almost 11.85 million, which is equivalent to 13 percent of the population of the Philippines. 429 Metro Manila ranks as the most densely populated of the metropolitan areas in the Philippines.

As Urban history the capital city of the Philippines its significance economically, culturally, and politically to the evolution of the Urbanization nation has been, and still is, unquestionable. Today as the chief port in a country that has one of Asia's fastest Colonial growing economies, and as the nucleus of Philippine commerce, banking, media, tourism, legal services, fashion Post-colonial and the arts, Manila's influence upon domestic affairs is unrivalled. Moreover as the site of a historic Chinatown, Culture and as the hub of a bygone transpacific economic system borne in the late-1500s that connected Southeast Asia Governance to the Americas, the city has long been its country's access point to regional and globalized mercantile activities. Yet as a city with a contemporary image grounded in it being largely unplanned, dense in terms of its built fabric, and blighted by slums, traffic jams, and polluted waterways, it is easy to neglect that Manila was once known as the ‘Pearl of the Orient’. 1.
