Concepts: Land. Hod Hasharon is undergoing a process of reallocation of farm lands (the area is known for its strawberry fields) to residential areas. This effects the stock of residential areas and agricultural areas conversely, with an opposite flow to each. Density. As mentioned above, fields are turned to residential areas. This leads to an increase in density in the town outskirts, through the growth of new buildings on former fields and the fact that due to economic consideration, these new buildings are usually 12-20 storied buildings. As a result, new people migrate into the new neighborhoods from other towns as well as from the older buildings in the town center. Building Materials. The new construction leads to a steady influx of building stock.
