[A new measure for degree of urbanization: the address density of the surrounding area].

C J Den Dulk, H Van De Stadt, J M Vliegen.   

Abstract

A new method of measuring the degree of urbanization of a given area, developed by the Dutch Central Bureau of Statistics, is introduced. "The measure classifies areas according to what is called address density of the surroundings: the average address density within a radius of 1 km of an address in the area." The advantages are discussed, and the measure is used to classify the 647 municipalities in the Netherlands into five groups according to urbanization level. (SUMMARY IN ENG) excerpt
