"There is at present much public interest in the future geography of the Netherlands. Plans for new infrastructure to accommodate rail, road and air traffic are hotly debated. The location of new residential areas and the disposition of economic activity are also frequently discussed. Supply and demand of employment and housing show diverging trends in various parts of the country. For planners this raises the question as to the likely or advisable future population distribution."
