The sector theory, proposed by Homer Hoyt in 1939, suggests that cities develop in a series of sectors or wedges rather than concentric rings. This model posits that certain areas of a city become more attractive for various types of development, which then expand outward from the city center along transportation routes, creating pie-shaped sectors.
