We investigate the distribution of bright main sequence stars near thenorthern edge of the M33 disk. Clustering on sub-kpc scales is seen among starswith ages near 10 Myr, and two large star-forming complexes are identified.Similar large-scale grouping is not evident among stars with ages 100 Myr.These stars are also distributed over a much larger area than those withyounger ages, and it is argued that random stellar motions alone, as opposed toorderly motions of the type spurred by large scale secular effects, canre-distribute stars out to distances of at least 2 kpc (i.e. one disk scalelength) from their birth places on 100 Myr timescales. Such random motions maythus play a significant role in populating the outer regions of the M33 disk.Finally, it is suggested that - to the extent that the ambient properties ofthe outer disk mirror those in the main body of the disk - stars in this partof M33 may have formed in star clusters with masses 50 - 250 solar, which issubstantially lower than the peak of the solar neighborhood initial clustermass function.
