    Since we were able now to drive and get to the outskirts of the city in no time, urban development started to flourish as the nowadays known as “suburbs,” and the perception of “living in the country” as well changed. The urban residential and commercial patterns we used to see before that were restricted within walking distances from the city center, now changed completely since people were able to travel longer distances for shopping, living, working, etc. Moreover, time and effort were saved, since conveniently, cars were able to move parallel but more importantly perpendicular to the fixed train tracks, people were able to go in any direction in less time for, also, less money since 1 person riding vs. 4-5 people riding the car cost the…

    Urbanisation is the process in which people move from a rural area to an urban area. Levels of urbanisation are determined by looking at both the population of rural and urban areas. For the first time ever in history more people live in urban areas than in rural areas. This movement shows no sign of stopping with a predicted 1.84% increase in people living in urban areas expected between 2015 and 2020. And this disparity in rural-urban growth can be a really damaging element if the urban areas of a country aren’t prepared for the influx of people.…

Multiple-Nuclei – large cities developed by peripheral spread from several nodes of growth; retail district needs accessibility, port needs waterfront site, industry needs rails.…

    Immigration has caused many concerns for Americans, as this is an ongoing issue that is very controversial. Many politicians argue that an open door policy creates a higher rate for crime and threat upon the U.S citizens. For example, “The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States suggest that loose immigration policy can allow enemies of the country in too easily” (Unit 8 Lecture 1: Immigration). Also, many claim that allowing immigrants into the United States harms the economy, especially with unemployment. Certainly this can be a downfall to an open door policy; as immigrants are assuming jobs that Americans could fill. I also thought this was a big disadvantage because business will be more willing to hire the immigrants…
