Question 1. Zoning ordinances are likely to be used for all BUT which of the following?

1. Restricting polluting or noxious businesses in residential areas
2. Ensuring that buildings in a particular area are similar in size and use, which might prevent an apartment building for low-income people to be built near single family homes
3. Siting an incinerator near large expensive homes rather than smaller cheaper homes because fewer people will be affected in the less-densely populated neighborhood
4. Limiting the hours of operation for businesses in a part of a city in order to control traffic and noise

Question 2

2. refers to whatever part of the city has the most residential transitioning, with some people moving in and some people moving out
3. has a mix of land uses, typically including some retail, some manufacturing, and some residential
4. explains patterns of uneven development, since it shows that some areas are getting more investment while others are getting less

Question 3

Burgess designed the Concentric Zone Model which

3. understood the city through mathematical and quantitative approaches to data rather than through qualitative approaches, such as interviews and observation.
4. was dominated by women, who took credit for the work of men who worked as social workers and knew more about what was on the streets of Chicago
