Question:
From the images P, Q and R given below, select the corresponding land use categories according to Alonso's Bid Rent Theory.
From the images P, Q and R given below, select the corresponding land use categories according to Alonso's Bid Rent Theory.
Show Hint
In bid rent theory, land with the highest rent is used for the most intensive activities like retail near CBD.

- P – Manufacturing; Q – Residential; R – Retail
- P – Retail; Q – Residential; R – Manufacturing
- P – Residential; Q – Retail; R – Manufacturing
- P – Retail; Q – Manufacturing; R – Residential
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Alonso's Bid Rent Theory explains that land use intensity decreases with increasing distance from the central business district (CBD).
Step 1: Interpretation of Land Uses.
- P (Manufacturing): Manufacturing uses require more space, so they are generally located further from the CBD.
- Q (Residential): Residential areas tend to be located further than retail but closer to manufacturing.
- R (Retail): Retail establishments require high accessibility to the CBD for maximum customer reach and therefore are located closest to the CBD.
Thus, based on the theory and the provided images:
P = Manufacturing, Q = Residential, R = Retail.
