DIVERSE PLACES CONTENT SUMMARY
EQ1


Population Structure: Cities are URBANISED and very densely populated; countryside’s are sparsely populated in
comparison.

Rural-Urban Continuum (RUC): Population densities generally lower the further away from the city you are,
HOWEVER there are exceptions with small peaks of high population densities in commuter settlements and/ or
villages, markets, and towns.



Population Density Factors:

▪ Physical Environment - Flatter areas are often easier to develop upon, leading to an increase in
development. Flood plains and steep slopes are avoided because properties cost more to build and maintain,
often only used when more space is desperately needed.

▪ Socio-economic Status – Wealthier people live in more expensive housing and will often live away from
places with higher population density for greater privacy or perceived safety, along with more private space
and better air quality.

▪ Dwelling type and household size – High density housing often involves flats to accommodate for limited
space.

▪ Functions – Population density is directly lowered when housing is mixed with non-residential activities, such
as manufacturing.

▪ Planning – Planners control the density of all new residential development. Planners have a significant
impact on surrounding housing density.
