世界城市的人口分布格局研究——以纽约、东京、伦敦为例

Distribution of Population in World Cities:A Case Study of New York,Tokyo and London

本文采用最新的官方数据,分别研究了纽约、东京和伦敦三个世界城市人口分布及其演变的一般特征和规律,得出世界城市人口城市化的总体规律,认为:核心区出现逆城市化的时间均相对较早,且相对其他区域而言,核心区人口变动的剧烈程度更加明显;市域范围内核心外围式空间结构形态已被打破,进入多元化时代;进入信息化时期,中心城区人口密度通常保持在一定的上限之内,打破该极限,则此范围内的人口将仍然出现较高的不稳定性。

In this paper, we use the latest official data to study the general characteristics and rules on urban population＇s distribution and evolution in world cities such as New York,Tokyo and London,find out the patterns of urbanization and reach three conclusions here：first,the phenomenon of counter-urbanization occurring in Center City District more earlier than any other areas,and much remarkable for the change of urban population. Second, in area of metropolitan area, the pattern of core-peripheral spatial structure had been broken and entered the era of diversity. Third, the Center City District population density is usually maintained at a certain limit,to break the limit,this will be within the scope of the population is still higher volatility.
