geographic diversity

A variety of place and geographic identity within a relatively small area.
When a "neighborhood" is thought of to have a much smaller area and than is designated by most newspapers, other publications, travel websites, as well as philistines, that is geographic diversity.
While metropolitan areas are usually the antithesis of geographic diversity, such metropolitan areas as the San Fransisco Bay area, Hampton Roads VA, the Tampa Bay Area FLA, Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton PA/NJ, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/etcetera PA, the North Carolina Research triangle (Raleigh/Durham/Cary/Chapel Hill/Wake Forest), as well as any "tri-cities," "quad-cities or any other metropolitan area domminated by multiple cities are good examples of metropolitan areas which contain geographic diversity. Any smaller or average sized county which contains multiple towns with their own identities contains geographic diversity (on the other end, merged city/county governments such as Louisville KY are geograpically homogenous). Any state, provence or small country which is domminated by multiple cities, or at least may lack one single primate city (and the identityless sprawl surrounding it) are also geographically Diverse.
Geographic diversity means being able to go from one town or city to another and then another while travelling just a short distance.

In a large border city, one will often find geographic diversity on the other side of the said boudary.

Thanks to suburban sprawl, the accompanying horizontal expansion of metropolitan areas (as well as the increased identification within one), the consolidation of post offices, far-flung airports containing the name of a major city 2 miles away, and all the job growth moving to the boondocks right outside major cities, we're going to see less and less geographic diversity in the time yet to come.

People simply don't start towns anymore, just suburbs.

There are no suburbs, only sprawl, edge cities, and towns that have been imperialized.

Geographically single

Many of the soldiers in Iraq think they are geographically single and cheat on their wives.

Geographical hottie

When the woman in the room is the best looking one. She may not be great looking or exactly fit but the fact that she happens to be the best one around at the time makes it so.

Mary is having a small party. Mary weights 180 lbs. Her five friends that came tip the scales at over 300 lbs. each. Mary is most likely the geographical hottie.

geographical chameleon

an area you haven't been to in a very, very, long time. you remember it one way, but by the time you get back the 'developers' have closed in, and though the 'lay of the land' is pretty much the same, new buildings/architecture (bizarrechitecture? (-urban dict.word!) have 'gone up' and you no longer recognize the place.

went back to pooptown after fifteen years and it had become a geographical chameleon!
