- The possibility of change that results from people living together in cities.

- The internal physical attributes of a place, including its absolute location, its spatial character and physical setting.
- The rehabilitation of deteriorated, often abandoned, housing of low‐income inner‐city residents.
- A relatively small, egalitarian village, where most of the population was involved in agriculture. Starting over 10,000 years ago, people began to cluster in agricultural villages as they stayed in one place to tend their crops.
- One of two components, together with social stratification, that enable the formation of cities; agricultural production in excess of that which the producer needs for his or her own sustenance and that of his or her family and which is then sold for consumption by others.
- The transformation of an area of a city into an area attractive to residents and tourists alike in terms of economic activity.
- The very poorest parts of cities that in extreme cases are not even connected to regular city services and are controlled by gangs or drug lords.
- Unrestricted growth in many American urban areas of housing, commercial development, and roads over large expanses of land, with little concern for urban planning.
- Areas of a city, the main purpose of which is to encourage people to consume goods and services; driven primarily by the global media industry.
- The innovation of the city, which occurred independently in five separate hearths.
- The entire built‐up, nonrural area and its population, including the most recently constructed suburban appendages. Provides a better picture of the dimensions and population of such an area than the delimited municipality (central city) that forms its heart.
- Area of a city with a relatively uniform land use (e.g. an industrial zone, or a residential zone).
- One of two components, together with agricultural surplus, which enables the formation of cities; the differentiation of society into classes based on wealth, power, production, and prestige.

- In ancient Greece, public spaces where citizens debated, lectured, judged each other, planned military campaigns, socialized, and traded.
- The downtown heart of a central city, marked by high land values, a concentration of business and commerce, and the clustering of the tallest buildings.

- Rapid change in the racial composition of residential blocks in American cities that occurs when real estate agents and others stir up fears of neighborhood decline after encouraging people of color to move to previously white neighborhoods. In the resulting outmigration, real estate agents profit through the turnover of properties.
- Chronologically the fifth urban hearth, dating to 200 BCE.
- holds that in a model urban hierarchy, the population of a city or town will be inversely proportional to its rank in the hierarchy.

- The focal point of ancient Roman life combining the functions of the ancient Greek acropolis and agora.
- Outlined by a group of architects, urban planners, and developers from over 20 countries, an urban design that calls for development, urban revitalization, and suburban reforms that create walkable neighborhoods with a diversity of housing and jobs.
- The division of a city into different regions or zones (e.g. residential or industrial) for certain purposes or functions (e.g. housing or manufacturing).
- Restricted neighborhoods or subdivisions, often literally fenced in, where entry is limited to residents and their guests. Although predominantly high‐income based, in North America gated communities are increasingly a middle‐class phenomenon.

- The external locational attributes of a place; its relative location or regional position with reference to other nonlocal places.
- A discriminatory real estate practice in North America in which members of minority groups are prevented from obtaining money to purchase homes or property in predominantly white neighborhoods. The practice derived its name from the red lines depicted on cadastral maps used by real estate agents and developers. Today, redlining is officially illegal.
- Economic activity that is neither taxed nor monitored by a government; and is not included in that government's Gross National Product (GNP); as opposed to a formal economy.
- Chronologically the second urban hearth, dating to 3200 BCE.
