摘要

Urban and regional theory, urbanization theory, local theory, and intraurban location and distribution theory were all used to pick the factors to be measured in a centrographic study of the growth of Atlanta, Ga. The study used mapping techniques to trace the changes in total population, income distributions, locations of industry, and racial distribution for the years between 1940 and 1975. This centrographic study showed that traditional expansion patterns took place; previously rural land around the edges of the city was used for housing, the mortgage market created new wealth, and a shift occurred in the center of activities. In Atlanta the higher income growth was to the north of the city with lesser income groupings arranged in a series of quadrants ending with the lowest income growth south of the city. In this study the centrographic techniques lead to useful insights concerning relationships between urban theory and empirical evidence. Such techniques can also have practical application. By identifying areas of growth and decline in population, employment, land values, and markets, centrographic measures can be useful in the planning of facilities and services, anticipating rises and declines in sales and revenues, and predicting the distribution of future service loads. This discussion briefly summarizes the findings of the Atlanta study, citing the urban growth theory upon which the particular submeasurement was based. The general adaptability to transfer of the technique is emphasized. References are appended.
