urban sprawl The physical pattern of low-density expansion of large urban areas under market conditions into the surrounding agricultural areas.

Development is patchy, scattered and strung out, with a tendency to discontinuity because it leap-frogs over some areas, leaving agricultural enclaves ['ɜ:bən'sprɔ:l]
