Spatial Distribution and Density of Cities

Spatial distribution refers to how cities are spread out across a geographic area. This can be influenced by factors like natural resources, transportation routes, and historical development. Density describes how many people live in a specific area, which varies between urban and rural regions. In cities, a high density often leads to a concentration of services and amenities, fostering vibrant communities. Conversely, lower density areas may offer more space and tranquility but fewer services. Understanding these concepts helps us appreciate urban planning and the dynamics of population growth and movement in different regions.
