Towards a theory of sustainable city sizes by Liton Md Kamruzzaman

“…Abstract This study proposes a new theory of sustainable city size: the condition where a city’s actual population aligns with its theoretical capacity to function effectively. Drawing from four foundational theories (locational fundamentals, increasing returns, central place, and central flow), the study develops a conceptual framework to estimate theoretical city size using data from 655 Urban Centres and Localities (UCLs) in Australia. …”
