Abstract: The negative exponential decline of population and employment density with distance from the center is examined for 16 large urban areas with two or three major centers. An additive model is used, with the predicted density for each census tract being the sum of the density estimated for the negative exponential decline from each center. The model works well for population density, producing results comparable to those for the large urban areas with single centers. As with employment density decline for the single-center areas, separate estimates of employment density decline are required for areas near the centers and farther from the centers.
