How does physical geography affect settlement patterns?

weather and climate have a big influence on settlement patterns, someone who enjoys the heat would enjoy living in Florida rather than the Artic, and vise versa. another factor is vegetation, in Canada where I am from there is only about a two month period strawberries are available but in Another Country they are available more frequently. A third contributing factor is its developmental status, a third world country such as Bangladash is in the opinions of most a less appealing country to live in than Canada, which is a fully developed and functional country.
