In this work, we construct a geographical network of buildings in built urban environments: the nodes are the building centroids characterized by their Voronoi areas, while the edges denote spatial adjacency and are weighted based on the gravity model. We then introduce triggering on random nodes, and observe the effect of the inhomogeneity of the Voronoi area distribution on the propagation of the cascade.
