What's the difference between boundary and periphery?

Boundary


Definition:

  • (n.) That which indicates or fixes a limit or extent, or marks a bound, as of a territory; a bounding or separating line; a real or imaginary limit.

Example Sentences:

Periphery


Definition:

  • (n.) The outside or superficial portions of a body; the surface.
  • (n.) The circumference of a circle, ellipse, or other figure.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) However, as other patients who lived at the periphery of the Valserine valley do not appear to be related to any patients living in the valley, and because there has been considerable immigration into the valley, a number of hypotheses to explain the distribution of the disease in the region remain possible.
