@AZ

Seafoam:

Here I chose A

AZ:

I am inclined to agree with your answer

Seafoam:

Ok great!

AZ:

also reminds me of that Dominican Republic image haha

Seafoam:

Which of these results from the construction of suburban housing? Deindustrialization Gentrification Ghettoization Rural flight Urban sprawl

Seafoam:

AZ:

I agree!

Seafoam:

Yay!

Seafoam:

Ok now this ones much harder

1 attachment
Seafoam:

gentrification of the area little protection from weather conditions rapidly spreading diseases lack of a tax base an underground economy

Seafoam:

I chose rapidly spreading diseases

AZ:

mhmm I don't think so. I feel like when houses are all that close together, it's easier for diseases to spread

Seafoam:

Ok I just thought that could be possible because the houses are on different levels

AZ:

When I search up the image, I get back that it's called "slums" also remember this is an EXCEPT question

Seafoam:

Unfortunately

Seafoam:

Slums?

AZ:

slums are just places where usually poor people end up living

AZ:

A more proper definition from Wikipedia "A slum is usually a highly populated urban residential area consisting mostly of closely packed, decrepit housing units in a situation of deteriorated or incomplete infrastructure, inhabited primarily by impoverished persons."

AZ:

So if poor people live here, do you think they'd have some kind of underground economy? Basically like a black market

AZ:

Also might want to know what gentrification means "Gentrification is a process of changing the character of a neighborhood through the influx of more affluent residents and businesses."

Seafoam:

Maybe, so since its an except question that would be crossed off?

AZ:

which answer would be crossed off

Seafoam:

The underground economy one

AZ:

yes

Seafoam:

So lack of tax base....?

AZ:

What do you think about if there's bad weather? It's where poor people live. Do the houses look reliable to you?

Seafoam:

Nope

AZ:

so "A tax base is the amount of assets or income that can be taxed by the government or other taxing authority." https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/taxbase.asp

AZ:

They're poor, do you think they'll have many assets or incomes to get taxed?

Seafoam:

So since I dont think its the first one, you dont think its the third, and its definitely not the second or fifth

Seafoam:

I suppose not

Seafoam:

4 then?

AZ:

What does that leave us with

AZ:

no no

Seafoam:

Oh darn

Seafoam:

I hate except questions *head slap*

AZ:

yes haha

Seafoam:

gentrification?

Seafoam:

Which geographical concept is being demonstrated by the provided image? Redlining A greenbelt An office park Urban sprawl Placemaking

1 attachment

Seafoam:
