Abstract
The size of the market is the number of buyers that can be reached effectively in a spatial market.

Market structures considered are isolated monopoly, monopolistic competition and perfect competition. When transportation costs fall, markets expand under monopoly, but shrink under monopolistic or perfect competition.
