Burgess' concentric zone theory of urban growth is most evident in larger and older American cities, such as Chicago, which was the city he used to develop his theory. This theory describes a city as having five concentric zones, each with its own distinct characteristics and uses, from the central business district to the suburbs. In contrast, pre-industrial cities in Western Europe and cities established before the industrial revolution did not have the same patterns of growth and development as modern American cities, while suburban areas of newer American cities have their own unique patterns of development.
