1. Urban Models For LEDC’s

2. Waugh’s Model

3. What Is It All About?
Based on cities of the developing world, using some of the ideas found in the MEDC models, but also incorporating the urban features only found in LEDC cities.
The CBD is still central to the urban area, and is the area of highest land price.
However around it is the most expensive residential areas.
In some places, such as Sao Paulo, this means huge luxurious high-rise apartment blocks, whilst in others, such as Delhi, the former colonial areas are the most lucrative in which to own property.

4. What Is It All About?
Industrial development is along major transport routes, whilst there are also sectors of high-class housing.
The most striking difference between the LEDC model and the MEDC models is the remaining residential areas. They have been divided into three sections.The periferia are low class, poor quality houses. However they do have limited amenities and are permanent homes.

5. What Is It All About?
The favelas or shanty towns are illegal settlements, where the houses are built from what ever the people can find, and there are no basic amenities.
In some cities, such as Sao Paulo, schemes have been introduced to help the residents of the favelas, and these people can be found in the sector of housing improvements schemes.
