In new street additions, Khabarovsk built increasingly disconnected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then improved, while Bakersfield built increasingly disconnected streets over time and Yulin built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1991-2005, then shifted to more disconnected patterns. For the full network, Khabarovsk and Bakersfield both became progressively more disconnected, while Yulin became more connected from 1975 through 1991-2005, then grew more sprawly from 1991-2005 onwards. Notably, Khabarovsk had a more connected network than Yulin in 1975 but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
