| 5913177328 | Multiple Nuclei Model | A model of urban land use in which a city grows from several independent points rather than from one CBD Each point acts as a growth center from a particular kind of land use. As these expand, they form a single urban area |  | 9 |
| 5913177329 | Multiple Nuclei Model | -Takes into account the varied factors of decentralization in the structure of modern North American cities -Distance decay is still applicable | 10 | |
| 5913177330 | Problems with Multiple Nuclei Model | -Negligent of building heights -Abrupt division between zones -Unaware of inertia forces -No consideration of government policy | 11 | |
| 5913177331 | Peripheral Model | A model of an urban area that consists of an inner city surrounded by large suburban residential and business areas tied together by a beltway or ring road -Goes with development of urban sprawl -Decentralization of CBD -Works with the idea of edge cities |  | 12 |
