The most desirable housing in the city is there. The quality houses extends outward fro the urban core. As you get further away from the center of the city the quality of housing decreases. Public transportation, urban water supply, and access to technology all decrease away from the center of the city sometimes they disappear altogether. The outer ring of the city (the Perfério) is characterized by poverty lack of infrastructure and poorly built houses known as shantytowns]]> 2018-04-19 15:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253484683 MattOverbay https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253485655 - Griffin-Ford Model: a model used to describe Latin-American Cities

These cities grew very slowly for centuries with little planning. Which resulted into a commercial and residential land used with narrow and winding streets. Later urban renovations cut trough areas to produce elegant and wide boulevards with high quality housing and shops. Often former palace grounds have been transformed into large urban parks. European suburbs are likely to have higher percentage of taller buildings. ]]> 2018-04-19 15:40:36 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253489289 4804248113 https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253489535 Large cities were rare in most of Africa until the 19th century when Europeans colonized the continent. But the urban areas recently have grown rapidly. The growth of informal settlements often results from the rapid influx of migrants who simply reside where they can find space (squatter settlements)]]> 2018-04-19 15:41:01 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253489535 4804248113 https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253489821 Cities shaped by the spread of Islam are common in the Middle East, North Africa, parts of Spain and East Africa and a few locations in Southeast asia. The principal mosque in the center of an Islamic city is usually surrounded by a complex structure to serve the public, such as schools for children and soup kitchens for the poor. Many cities were built with a fort designed to protect the city with its related palace and barracks for soldiers. MAjor roads run from the Gate to the center and along these roads are traditional outdoor bazaars called suqs.]]> 2018-04-19 15:41:28 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253489821 4804248113 https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253490170 Largest cities described by the McGee Model. Cities and towns often have government areas. Cities of Southeast Asian also have a high Chinese immigration rate and Chinese commercial interest that date back to a few centuries. As a result, there are secondary commercial areas dominated by Chinese business ]]> 2018-04-19 15:42:06 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253490170 4804248113 https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253490547 People want to use land in ways that can conflict. To balance the desires, cities and counties use zoning ordinances. Three general zoning are residential(where people live) commercial (where people sell goods and services) and industrial (where people make things) Municipal governments use zoning ordinances as a tool of urban planning. zoning laws can result in very clear land-segregation.]]> 2018-04-19 15:42:41 UTC https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253490547 MattOverbay https://padlet.com/4804248113/myl5abq8gdnd/wish/253680390 1.
