About this title

Synopsis

Turning a region into a thriving, self-reliant community

Building a Better Home Town presents a practical program of community self-analysis and self-help that centers on regional development.

It draws on real-world work from university extension services and local collaboration to strengthen towns, villages, and the countryside as a connected whole. The book argues that a strong regional center can support prosperity, culture, and opportunity for all its communities.

Through historical context, thoughtful analysis, and concrete steps, this edition outlines how to assess needs, foster regional cooperation, and keep resources and talent within the area. It emphasizes the importance of leadership, shared goals, and practical partnerships with local institutions to build lasting civic and economic vitality.

• Learn how to diagnose regional challenges and map local strengths.
• Explore forming regional councils or similar bodies to coordinate effort.
• Understand strategies to retain jobs, talent, and cultural activity within the region.
• See examples of how communities have organized for better planning and renewal.

Ideal for readers involved in local government, planning, community groups, or civic-minded residents seeking effective paths to regional progress.
