The study of the historical dimension of the current urban centers is considered an urgent necessity to understand their current geographical and urban reality because of its great impact on their composition, growth, functions and interactions, and reveals the pattern of urban fabric, density and amount of urban additions during the stages of growth, and the effect of geographical controls on the movement and direction of urbanization.
This methodology was reflected to include the development of urban addition at the level of villages, local units, and urban growth of villages in the dimensions surrounding the metropolis - Shebin al-Koum city, to know the effect of the metropolitan agglomeration on urban growth in the area closest to the governorate’s metropolis.
We summarize the urban problems and excesses and planning trends in the following points:
•The total urban addition amounted to (15.9 km2) of the cultivated area during a third of a century at a rate of 1.79% annually, while the rate of population growth revolves around 2.6% annually. The excess continued at the expense of the existing productive structures by filling waterways.
•The urban cluster area reached 260 acres per village in the sample villages, with an average size of 21.6 thousand people, and its density is estimated at 86.8 inhabitants per acre of urbanization, and the per capita share of the urban cluster reached 48.4 square meters horizontal.
•The surpluses of non-agricultural income were transferred to real estate investment in the village of Sukkariyyah, and it is difficult to cultivate and trade nurseries and ornamental trees, so it recorded the highest annual urban growth rate (8.8%), and its population growth rate is low (1.8%), despite its small population size (3627 people). The scrap trade had the same effect in the village of Shubra Khalfoun, as its urban growth rate increased (4.0%), while the population growth rates decreased (2.4%) after Sukkariya.
•When the population size of the village grows, it exceeds the minimum levels of higher services that require larger population sizes to cover the costs of its operation, which stimulates it to urban growth and this applies to the villages of Al-Batanun and May, which stimulated some of the city’s residents to reside.
