    This document discusses the internal structure and land use patterns of cities. It describes that there are different types of land uses including commercial, residential, industrial, institutional, transportation, and recreational uses. It explains that similar land uses aggregate together due to locational requirements and economies of scale, while different land uses separate due to conflicting requirements. It introduces the bid rent curve which illustrates that land rents decrease with distance from the city center due to competition for accessible land. Different land uses have different rent curves and locational preferences based on accessibility and space demands.
