In new street additions, Rangia and Kudra both built increasingly disconnected streets over time, while La Dorada fluctuated in its street-construction patterns. For the full street network, though, all three cities follow the same trend. Rangia and La Dorada have been growing further apart in their street-network character since 1975.
