Many geographical studies emphasize on the structural development of sett1ement area by means of land use with particular attention given to the urban areas. However, we would like to argue that socio-economic conditions of peoples living in the settlement area will revealed in terms of symbols. The structural development of a settlement area could be depicted by means of analyzing these socio-economic symbols. In this paper, spatial socio-economic structure of Ywatharyar Village located in Minbu Township is analyzed as a sample. Base map is created by using GPS. Socio-economic data are collected by field survey. Then, locational pattern of each socio-economic function in the village is found out by using distribution method, mean center, standard deviational ellipse, and Kernel probability analysis. Results show two points: (1) all economic functions are located near the canter of setl1emmt area along the major road. In addition, grocery shops are located at the newly extended portion of the settlement while services and manufacturing are still remain in the old village center; (2) different kinds of social function have varied location characteristics. Some like monastery, pagoda and underground water supply system are located at the periphery of settlement Dhamayon needs dispersed location in the village. On the other hand, electricity supply and telecommunications system are concentrated in the old village center, Education facilities and hospital are located in the periphery of village where it has good accessibility and large space.
