city land use

City land use refers to how different areas within a city are designated for specific purposes, such as residential (homes), commercial (businesses), industrial (factories), recreational (parks), and institutional (schools, hospitals). Planning ensures these zones are organized to promote efficient, safe, and sustainable living environments. Proper land use balances needs, minimizes conflicts, and supports economic growth while preserving natural spaces. Zoning laws regulate these uses, guiding development and maintaining the community's overall functionality and quality of life.
