NRP 54 presents urban district typology
A district typology developed as part of the National Research Programme "Sustainable Development of the Built Environment" (NRP 54) makes it possible to depict districts of Swiss urban centres in a similar way to municipalities and observe demographic trends and urban development. Analysis reveals significant differences between Switzerland's urban centres as regards utilization density and sociocultural mix. The concentration of certain nationalities in individual districts of Lucerne, Basel and Berne is particularly striking. There is also pronounced segregation as regards population age structures in these cities.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
