Settlement Classification

Settlement Classification is a systematic typological framework within human geography that categorizes human settlements based on hierarchical attributes such as population size, administrative function, economic activity, and service provision, distinguishing it from other settlement-related classifications by its focus on ranking and functional differentiation within a structured urban-rural continuum.
