In particular, this analysis indicates that the activity will locate at the median point, with an equal number of attraction points in any direction, rather than the arithmetic average of the distances to all points. The analysis imposes several restrictive assumptions, including a trip to each location, the same transit cost per mile to each location, the same quantity of output sold to, or input purchased from, each location.
