Urban hierarchy refers to the arrangement of cities in a system based on population size and economic function, with larger cities exerting more influence over smaller ones. The rank-size rule is a pattern observed in some urban systems where the population of a city is inversely proportional to its rank in the urban hierarchy, meaning the second-largest city will have half the population of the largest city, the third-largest city will have one-third the population, and so on.
