The Urban System of Belize and Belize City Abstract: Belize is located on the Caribbean coast of northern Central America and shares a border on the north with Mexico, on the west and south with Guatemala. To the east is the Caribbean sea and the second largest barrier reef in the world, which flanks most of the 386 kilometers of the predominantly marshy coastline. The area of the country is 22,960 square kilometers, which is slightly larger than El Salvador or Massachusetts. (Merril, 1993) In 1990, the population was approximately 191,000 persons, with 50.1 of these living in rural areas. In the previous ten years, there was a large influx of persons fleeing the wars in Mexico and El Salvador, and increasing numbers of persons from Belize City migrating to the United States. Belize City's population accounted for almost thirty percent of the total urban population of the country. (Merril, 1993) Introduction: In a land so small and sparsely populated, and divided in half between rural and urban, it hardly seems apt to study the "urban system" of the country. However, even in Belize, where there is no real primate city like Cairo in Egypt or Tokyo in Japan, Belize City has, from the time of the Baymen acted as an urban center, with its residents controlling most of the country's land and economy. The small population size can be seen as a direct effect of the unique political and economic beginnings of the country and have effected the growth of the country and the growth of Belize City.
