and [[urban-fringe|Urban Fringe (VWH)]] are two of the three Location Intelligence
co-location archetypes — transit-adjacent sites with significant parking, and
large-format retail and distribution-industrial activity on the metropolitan periphery,
respectively. [[optimum-mosaic-demographic-profiling|Optimum Mosaic demographic

Why Places Grow covers the city-scale forces behind demand: the co-location archetypes a site can belong to, and the demographic and parking standards that follow from them.

## Co-Location Archetypes

[[commuter|Commuter (PKS)]] and [[urban-fringe|Urban Fringe (VWH)]] are two of the three Location Intelligence co-location archetypes: transit-adjacent sites with significant parking, and large-format retail and distribution-industrial activity on the metropolitan periphery, respectively. The third archetype, Retail Centres (PRO), is covered in [[site-selection-index|How We Choose Sites]].

<!-- AUTO-GENERATED MEMBERSHIP: DO NOT EDIT BELOW — regenerate from index_group: co-location-archetypes -->
- [[commuter]] — Commuter (PKS) clusters identify transit-adjacent commercial sites with significant parking — commuter rail, transit hubs, park-and-ride, and highway-exit commercial — one of three Location Intelligence co-location archetypes.
- [[urban-fringe]] — Urban Fringe (VWH) clusters identify large-format retail and distribution-industrial activity on the urban periphery — big-box hardware, home improvement, and logistics — one of three Location Intelligence co-location archetypes.

## Demographic and Parking Standards

[[optimum-mosaic-demographic-profiling|Optimum Mosaic Demographic Profiling]] and [[regional-market-demographic-threshold|the Regional Market Demographic Threshold]] cover the population signals that separate a qualifying market from a local-serving community. [[parking-ratio-standards|Parking Ratio Standards]] sets the stall-per-square-foot requirement every site must meet before construction.

<!-- AUTO-GENERATED MEMBERSHIP: DO NOT EDIT BELOW — regenerate from index_group: demographic-and-parking-standards -->
- [[optimum-mosaic-demographic-profiling]] — Demographic methodology deriving the Optimum Mosaic — Woodfine's target consumer signature — from the highest sales-per-square-foot Walmart Supercentre trade areas.
- [[regional-market-demographic-threshold]] — Demographic conditions distinguishing a qualifying Regional Market from a local-serving community, led by National Retailer sales per square foot and secondary trade strength.
- [[parking-ratio-standards]] — Parking standard in the Woodfine Universal Governance Bylaws: minimum 3 stalls per 1,000 square feet of net leasable area, with a target of 4, specified before construction.
