Presentation transcript:

“Native American tribes began the history of Illinois agriculture about 7,000 years ago. They cultivated corn, squash, and other crops that we still produce today. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries European and Euro-American settlers displaced Native Americans when they immigrated to the newly annexed Illinois Territory. They started small farmsteads on southern Illinois prairies near the Wabash and Mississippi Rivers.” Standard 12: Human Settlement Patterns

“Boswash” The densely populated corridor from Boston to Washington, D.C. is referred to as a megalopolis - which means a group of cities or a long string of metropolitan areas in a region connected by transportation, communications and economics.

Conclusion: Space & Settlement Patterns It is estimated that Arizona’s 60+ population will triple in size from approximately 875,000 in 2000 to almost 3 million by 2050 This next generation of elderly is the baby boom generation – a larger population than ever before Older populations today live longer and healthier lives. Yet, demands on the health care system are going to be tremendous Students need to acquire a working knowledge of such topics as: the nature and functions of cities – such as the processes that cause cities to grow and decline – in both population as well as importance or influence; and how cities are related to their market areas (hinterlands or outlying areas) the patterns of land use and value, population density, housing type, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and age distribution in urban areas the patterns of change, growth, and decline within urban areas; the process of suburbanization; and finally, and how new types of urban nodes develop Geographers ask these questions to make sense of the distribution and concentrations of human populations on the planet.
