FUNCTIONAL
ZONES
Functional zones in a city are the areas where
people go to do particular things. There are three
main functional areas in a modern city: the CBD
(central business district), the industrial zone and the
residential zone.
The CBD is often called the city centre. It is usually in
the historic centre of a city. It has most of the shops
and services, like banks, libraries, and also offices and
the town hall. There are also places for entertainment
like theatres, cinemas and swimming pools. Land is
expensive in the CBD so there are often a lot of tall
buildings like skyscrapers. Some historic cities don't
have these more modern buildings because they want
the city to look traditional
The industrial zone is where the factories, warehouses
and industries are. Many years ago, these zones were
in the centre of cities, but they moved out, probably
because of the noise and pollution. This area is usually
less attractive than the central areas. Workers often
travel here from where they live, so these zones
usually have good transport links for trains and cars to
move people, materials and products to and from the
factories.
Residential zones are often on the outside of a city
The buildings are newer and the land is cheaper
here so this is where people, especially families, live
There are schools and more open spaces like parks
and there is less traffic and pollution than in other
zones
