APHG Ch. 13.2 Where Are People Distributed in Urban Areas?

According to the concentric zone model, a city develops in a series of

• corridors

• nodes

• rings

• sectors

• quadrants

According to the sector model, the best housing is located in

• a corridor from downtown to the edge of the city.

• an outer ring surrounding the city.

• nodes near universities and parks.

• renovated inner-city neighborhoods.

• gated communities.

According to the sector model, what might influence the growth of a new corridor?

• The opening of a convention center.

• Subsidies for housing that revitalize older neighborhoods.

• The removal of manufacturing from the CBD.

• A university campus developed near an edge city.

• The extension of transportation routes.

According to Homer Hoyt's sector model, once a district with high-class housing is established, the most expensive new housing is built

• on the outer edge of that district, farther out from the center.

• on the inner edge of that district, closer to the center.

• in the skyscrapers of the CBD.

• in old industrial buildings and retail shops.

• on the outer edge of the suburban area, farther out from the center.

According to the multiple nuclei model, an airport is likely to attract nearby

• residences and highways

• hotels and warehouses

• retail and wholesale shops

• universities and colleges

• hospitals and clinics

With which urban model are edge cities most closely associated?

• sector

• suburban

• multiple nuclei

• galactic

• concentric zone

The peripheral model is most closely associated with

• the concentric circle model.

• the sector model.

• the multiple nuclei model.

• megalopolis development.

• smart growth.

The multiple nuclei model describes cities that include

• four linked CBDs.

• nodes such as a port, a university, airport, and a park.

• a nucleus in the CBD which is connected to a nucleus in the suburbs.

• links between a seaport, an airport, and a railway station.

• concentric rings around a CBD.

Edge cities emerged as a consequence of

• highway construction

• suburbanization

• gentrification

• remanufacturing

• census classification

Use the image to answer the question: All of the statements describing the model are true EXCEPT

• medium-class residential is located in Sector 4.

• heavy manufacturing is located near an industrial suburb.

• low-class residential is distributed in discontinuous nodes near the CBD.

• wholesale and light manufacturing has moved from the CBD to the suburbs.

• an outlying business district serves the high-class residential area.
