What is NOT considered a hallmark of a metropolitan area? They are engines of national economies. They are less densely populated today than during the 20th century. They demonstrate social polarization. They have high human capital levels. They typically have residents with higher levels of education.
@AZ
so which ones have you eliminated so far
Um nothing... I actually went back in the lesson and it didn't even mention it
Like how are you supposed to know? If you cant even find it?!
so metropolitan areas are our big bustling cities, would you agree that they are the backbone of the economy
Oh! I can cross off option 4
human capital just means has a lot of human and brains and manpower
Yes I agree
So the first one?
Oh wait
no, metropolitans are where everyone moves because of the economy and more jobs
I mean the second
yeah that seems to be irrelevant to the fact that it defines a metropolitan area
so I would agree
oo yay ok Im actually getting somewhere
All of the following are likely criticisms of the housing development in the image EXCEPT the development is too auto-centric there are too few green spaces houses are too close to one another houses are close to transportation networks houses are similar in style and lack architectural diversity
Ok so I think the answer might be the fourth one
let me open it up
so houses like these are found in suburbs and they're called cookie cutter houses precisely because they're all very similar to each other
also you can see they're all look very similar so if it's not D, what do you think it is?
Well the question is asking what could it be accused of EXCEPT
exactly so houses being very similar would be a compaint
so we would have to eliminate it
Mhm
people want to be unique and all
If it isn't d than I'd think its a
Does there look like there's much green spaces? People love to have greenery and trees
Yeah so its not that
I see A and D as the only possible options
All of the following are likely criticisms of the housing development in the image EXCEPT the question says EXCEPT what are the criticisms? it doesn't have much grass and greenery they're cookie cutter houses so they're all similar to each other do you like your houses being close to each other? Do you want your neighbor to be able to see into your house from their window?
we have to eliminate those answer choices
Yes, which is why I did, but I still dont get whats the concept of auto-centric
Oh I didn't even notice that answer choice
It doesnt really looked centered from the picture...
Oh yeah I kind of entered in the wrong place, sorry about that
okay yeah it's hard to find a definition of auto-centric but it seems that the word is based off being very dependent on cars
aka automobiles
so if you live in the suburbs like that image, you would need a car to get around to do most stuff
Ok so you think thats the answer?
Bicycle docking stations, like the one shown in the image, are MOST LIKELY to be found in areas that have recently industrialized have moved from primary to secondary economic activities subscribe to the ideals of New Urbanism are driven by ghettoization have mid-sized populations
I crossed out the last two
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Seafoam Ok so you think thats the answer? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no since it's auto-centric, we would eliminate it since it's an EXCEPT question leaving us with D like you said
Oh righhht
btw if you click on your image and copy it, and come back on here you can paste it and it will just attach
Oh ok that will be useful thank you
New Urbanism is an urban design movement which promotes environmentally friendly habits by creating walkable neighborhoods containing a wide range of housing and job types
So you think its the third option, I had myself thinking it was the first
and copying from Wikipedia again The process of becoming a ghetto, an isolated and underprivileged urban area. The process of ghettoizing (a group): the segregation/isolation of a group and placement of that group into a figurative or literal position of little power.
if a place has industrialized, do you think they would be using bikes? I don't think that would be the most fastest and efficient use of their time
yeahh....not the smartest thing ive done, thank you for the correction
Which type of development seeks to cut down on carbon emissions? Forward capitals Mixed-level development New Urbanism Suburbanization Transportation orientated development
I picked mixed-level development, please correct me if i'm wrong
Does your book have definitions for these terms? Because when I search, not all of them have a proper definition for them haha
Ok I'm looking
But for this question, refer to the previous question. I think you'll find your answer there
I- oh
*Head slap*
Last option?
Although this definition of transportation oriented development from wikipedia In urban planning, a transit-oriented development is a type of urban development that maximizes the amount of residential, business and leisure space within walking distance of public transport. It promotes a symbiotic relationship between dense, compact urban form and public transport use. But it's not as good as the other one because it just sounds like they're doing it make everything in one place But the other one FOCUSES on the environmental aspect

Ah third then
Right?
It seems half asleep I dont function properly
That's what I'm thinking
In the new global economy, MOST financial decisions are made on the national level at the corporate level in global cities at the regional level by NGOs at the global level by supranational organizations at the state level by politicians
Let's create a new post
This one's become kind of lengthy
Wow so far it seems I'm just getting everything wrong
we are? D:
Oh no I meant before you correct me
I sure hope I'm not giving you wrong answers either D: I'm trying to work my best with what there is out there haha
