What about similarly populated cities?
While Kolar and Golmorti both built increasingly connected streets from 1975 through 1976-1990, then shifted to more disconnected patterns, İnegöl fluctuated in its street-construction patterns in new street additions. For the full network, İnegöl became progressively more disconnected, while Kolar became more connected from 1975 through 1976-1990, then grew more sprawly from 1976-1990 onwards and Golmorti became more connected from 1975 through 1991-2005, then grew more sprawly from 1991-2005 onwards. İnegöl and Kolar have been converging in their street-network character since 1975.
