Inhaltsangabe:
- We demonstrate that the original fundamental allometry alone cannot accurately describe the relationship between urban area and population size. Instead, building height is a third factor that interplays with area and population. To illustrate this, we propose a straightforward model based on the idea that city area is the result of people's desire to live close to one another while also having sufficient living space. This leads to a more general form of fundamental allometry (relating area, population, and building height). Our argument is supported by empirical data from different countries.
