Book Description

This text was compiled as an open-access resource for Urban Geography (UST 290) at Cleveland State University. The course serves undergraduate majors (mostly) in the Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs, many of whom go on to careers in city government, urban planning, and community development. For these students, a solid understanding of the spatial aspects of the city is critical. The book integrates open-access materials (or materials otherwise free to CSU students) to cover spatial arrangement, spatial development, neighborhoods, the spatial implications of urban policy, and the data and methods of the modern urban geographer. By the end of the semester, students see the city from a geographic perspective — recognizing and understanding the complex spatial influences at work in the city around them.
