AP Human Geography
Unit 1 – Thinking Geographically
Topic 1.6
Why can local scale analysis in human geography fail to provide a comprehensive understanding?
They only use qualitative data and reject any quantitative information.
It may not include broader social, political or economic contexts affecting the local situation.
Local-scale analysis always neglects cultural aspects within an individual community.
Such analyses do not apply statistical methods to study population distribution.
