POPULATION GROWTH UK=75% of UK's
population due to capital cities and good
transport links. Scotland only has 8% however
has much more land- Most is greenbelt land or
uninhabitable and therefore cannot be built on.
NORTH EAST DECLINE:: more over 65's- not enough workers
no one having children./young people move to find
work./north is mainly secondary jobs in manufacturing
which is less desirable in this day and age./south is
warmer
SOUTH EAST INCREASE:: Migrants are 24-30 child
bearing age./better health care, less
deaths./transport links./largest economy
RURAL AND URBAN SETTLEMENTS:
RURAL(holmes chapel): Low population
density/ greenbelt areas cant be built on
so there is less houses/less
entertainment/less transport/wealthy
peoplelive in rural areas, big family houses
URBAN(Manchester) high
population density/brownfield
lots of property
development/lots of
entertainments/lots of
transport/poorer people live
in cities to be close to jobs=
less money on travel/flats
attract young people
RURAL TO URBAN CONTIUNUAM: transition from sparsly populated rural areas to largely populated suburbanised areas
CLOAKS MODEL: no set dwelling but a spectrum between rural to suburbanised villages
POPULATION CHARECTORISTICS: the government
suppresses diversity by placing cultured shops,
restaraunts and monuments in certain areas
meaning a person of this culture is more likely
to live here
RURAL AREA: 50/50 male female
ratio 95% white
MANCHESTER
BURY(outskirts of manc): 51%
female 49% male 92.1% white

GLOBALISATION

NEWYORK=37% white/47%male
HONG KONG= 94% Chinese/ less men than women
All are globalisd. TNC's stimulate growth in major
cities providing income and popularity. all cities are
wealthy
CHANGING PERSEPCTIVES OF LONDON
OLDERN DAY= horrible place, rashions,, people are
poor/ petty crime/high rent/dirty,immigrants,ill people
MODERN DAY: Tourist view it as beautiful busy capital ,
association with the queen and exciting places/people who
live there believe its expensive and hostile/nicer place if
you are rich
RURAL IDYLL: idyllic peaceful countryside everything that urban living is not-view created by Thomas
Hardy. E.G cornwall. I don't feel that the rural idyll can ever exist as places this perfect will always
inhabit people as they are desirable places to live. This means that they will be densly populated and
ruined by humans
POSSITIVES: less stress/beautiful
landscapes//nice people/superfast
broadband/local food/good activitys
NEGATIVES: ageing
population/massively busy during
holidays /lack of
jobs/isolated/poor access to
hospital/frequent storms
CHARECTORISTICS OF HOLMES CHAPEL
Globalised by costa, aldi, more TNC'cs less local business/elderly
migrants due to quiet area and new assisted homes/ sense of
place may have changed for older generation as holmes chapel
has globalised. this may have a negative impact as it is not the
place they remember./For younger people however holmes chapel
has changed as they have grown so are probably used to the
new holmes chapel
