Asutettujen

Asutettujen is a Finnish word that translates to "inhabited" or "settled" in English. It is the plural form of the adjective "asutettu," which also carries the meaning of being populated or occupied. The term is commonly used in geographical contexts to describe areas or regions that have human populations living in them, distinguishing them from uninhabited or wilderness areas. For instance, one might refer to "asutettujen alueiden kehitys" which means "development of inhabited areas."

The concept of "asutettujen" is fundamental in urban planning, regional development, and demographic studies. It helps categorize land use and population density. When discussing historical settlements, the term "asutettu" can refer to places that were once inhabited but may have been abandoned or depopulated over time. The presence of "asutettujen" areas implies infrastructure, social structures, and economic activities associated with human presence. Understanding the characteristics of "asutettujen" regions is crucial for making informed decisions about resource management, public services, and environmental protection.
