Urban Land Use Patterns

Urban land use patterns refer to how different areas within a city are designated for specific purposes, such as residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational activities. These patterns are influenced by various factors, including population density, economic activities, and infrastructure. For example, residential zones are typically located near schools and parks, while commercial areas are clustered in places with high foot traffic. Understanding these patterns helps in city planning and managing resources efficiently, ensuring that communities have access to necessary services and green spaces while minimizing congestion and environmental impact.
