Abstract
A city originates as a spatial nucleus that grows over space. The contemporary form or size of an urban center becomes an outcome of the city growth process. This city growth process involves concentration, deconcentration, centralization, decentralization, residential segregation, and spatial invasion and succession. City land use possesses an essential mobility behavior. Its components, however, tend to behave differently to move, showing varying degrees of affiliation and preferences based on individual space occupancy standard and need and efficiency standards for operating. This study explains the importance of intracity use mobility in city growth direction and places emphasis on the planning of various land use components so that balance can be maintained among these components within the city limits.
