Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Hoyt's sector model emphasizes the significance of terrain and the importance of

transportation routes in the layout of cities. According to Hoyt, residences of a

particular type and value tend to grow outward from the center of the city in wedge-

shaped sectors, with the more-expensive residential neighborhoods located along the

higher ground near lakes and rivers or along certain streets that stretch in one direction

or another from the downtown area. According to the multiple nuclei model developed

by urban ecologists Harris and Ullman, cities do not have one center from which all

growth radiates, but rather have numerous centers of development based on specific

urban needs or activities. As cities began to grow rapidly, they annexed formerly

outlying and independent townships that had been communities in their own right.
