Abstract

Urban geography is a subset of human geography that studies cities. An urban geographer's major duty is to examine spatial processes that form patterns in urban regions. So they research village, town, and city locations as well as their relative significance in respect to other areas and cities. Urban geography also considers economic, political, and social factors. Urban geography combines numerous different subjects within geography to completely comprehend each of these features of a metropolis.
