We tend to associate small town economic development with the decline of the rural United States empty houses, shuttered shops and rusting factories. A common diagnosis of sluggish small town recovery is their lack of lifestyle amenities that attract new residents and businesses.

This collection of recent articles by experts presents stories of small-town America s struggle and describes innovations and practices behind successful revivals.
