Some cities seem to grow without limit while others don't expand as much.
Many people first look for existing houses in a city.
Eventually they move from the inner city to the suburbs. She will probably look for land that is closest to the city and seek a transportation link so people can commute to the city. The developer needs to be aware of water, electricity, and services, such as churches, schools, and shopping areas. In this unit students will explore the basic concepts of how cities grow, determine why some cities have grown and others have not, and examine possible problems that cities may face. Students use geographic representations to organize, analyze, and present information on people, places, and environments.
