The Effect of Business Cycles on Metropolitan Suburbanization
This paper presents evidence that the process of metropolitan decentralization depends upon rates of national economic growth. The rate of suburbanization accelerates during expansions in the national economy and then declines when the national economy is sluggish. This uneven process of suburbanization occurs because during periods of strong national economic growth net investment rises. Investors, those considering both expansion at on-site loc…
The Geography of Enterprise Zones
The enterprise zone concept inherently contains restrictive implicit assumptions about the spatial distributions of economic activities and the residences of their labor forces. Both theory and emp
The Negative Exponential Density Gradient and the Standard Radius
This paper demonstrates for urban areas a direct relationship between the summary measures of centrography and the slope parameter of the negative exponential density gradient model. Starting with some basic assumptions about the form of urban population distributions, a mathematical relationship between the methods is derived by applying the centrographic technique to an exponentially distributed urban population. By use of data from a diverse s…
