Write a short journal entry describing at least TWO of the neighborhoods we visited in class, one “HAVE NOT” and one “HAVE” neighborhood. USE YOUR NOTES TO PROVIDE DETAIL ABOUT…
· Their homes
· The kind of jobs they have
· Their living conditions
· Their standard of living
EXAMPLE
Today we visited two neighborhoods in Bangladesh. One in the "slums" and one in the wealthy area. The people in the "slums' have a very low standard of living. They don't have running water in their homes. Their housing is made out of trash they've gathered from the dump. Their children cannot go to school and very few people have jobs. In the wealthy neighborhood life is much different. These people have a very high standard of living. They have large homes with maids, gardeners, security men and personal drivers. Their homes are very luxurious. They have swimming pools, large gardens and lots cars. Most people in this neighborhood are land or business owners. These two neighborhoods show that spatial inequality exists in Bangladesh.
