True or False: North American city models are different from LDC city models, such as the Latin American city model, because in North American models the rich tend to live towards the interior of the city and the poor towards the outskirts of the city. In LDC cities, the rich live on the outskirts of the city and the poor live towards the interior.

• True

• False

Answer explanation

This is opposite! In N.A. the rich live further away from the CBD because they are rich enough to commute into the city for work. The poor live closer to the CBD because they often walk or use public transportation to get to their jobs in the city.

In LDCs, due to colonialism, the rich and powerful lived near the interior and they pushed the poor/minorities outwards towards the periphery (outskirts) of the city.
