block unit—the smallest geographic entity for which the Census Bureau presents data—was available. We evaluate 11 counties ( Table 1 , Fig. 1 ) in the northeast Illinois region; these counties were chosen to represent the full spectrum of development (or lack thereof) character found in the area. A grid resolution of 0.16 km 2 was used for the AW procedure at the block level; this resolution represents the mean size of all blocks in the region for 1990, which is the initial time stamp of analysis
