You know I like Human Geog. But if there is one gaylord thing i hate about it is that there are about 3 different definitions for each term.

Is urban sprawl

a) The horizontal expansion of the city in the direction of the outskirts

OR

b) The horizontal expansion of the city via housing and transport routes leading to massive suburbanisation, socio-economic disconnections between the city centre and its peripheries, and encroaching into areas way beyond normal commuting times.

Tons of other terms and their triple definitions are shitting on my brain cells.
