9. Burgess Model – 1920’s
Land values are highest in the centre of a town or city. (This is because competition is high in the central parts of the settlement)
High-rise (small footprints), high-density (close together) buildings are found near the Central Business District (CBD)
Low-density (spaced out) on the edge of the city (more room and cheaper land).

10. Burgess Model - limitations
Old (1925) & was developed before mass car ownership.
New working and housing trends have emerged since the model was developed. (Many people choose to live and work outside the city on the urban fringe – this is not reflected in the Burgess model).

11. Burgess Model - limitations
Developed for American cities (in Europe it isn’t suitable because of different industry and social status).
Every city is different. (There is no such thing as a typical city).
It doesn’t take into consideration physical features of land and cities growing around them.

12. Hoyt Model – 1940’s
Based on the circles of Burgess but adds sectors of similar land uses concentrated in parts of the city. (Some zones, e.g. the factories/industry zone, radiate out from the CBD. This is probably following the line of a main road or a railway).

13. Hoyt Model- limitations
It doesn’t take into consideration physical features of land and cities growing around them.
There are no out of town developments.
Residential developments are likely to have shops and industry among them.

14. What characteristics changes as you move further away from the CBD.

15. Using the sheet decide which statements are true or false.
