Settlement Patterns

Settlements form recognizable patterns across a landscape: nucleated settlements cluster tightly around a central point like a water source or crossroads, dispersed settlements spread out with buildings scattered far apart, and linear settlements stretch out in a line, often following a road, river, or coastline. Which pattern develops in a place is often shaped by its physical geography and history.
