Geodemographic Segmentation - Principles

Principles

Geodemographic segmentation is based on two simple principles:

  • People who live in the same neighborhood are more likely to have similar characteristics than are two people chosen at random.
  • Neighborhoods can be categorized in terms of the characteristics of the population which they contain. Any two neighborhoods can be placed in the same category, i.e., they contain similar types of people, even though they are widely separated.

Famous quotes containing the word principles:

    The chief lesson of the Depression should never be forgotten. Even our liberty-loving American people will sacrifice their freedom and their democratic principles if their security and their very lives are threatened by another breakdown of our free enterprise system. We can no more afford another general depression than we can afford another total war, if democracy is to survive.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    It is always easier to fight for one’s principles than to live up to them.
    Alfred Adler (1870–1937)
