Endnotes <br />I USDA ERS. "Measuring Rurality: New Definitions in 2003." <br />http://www.ers.usda.gov/Briefiiig/Rurality/NewDefiiiitions/ <br />2 These five typologies have been developed by the authors <br />through discussions with a range of Smart Growth Network <br />member organizations, including NACo, the National Main Street <br />Center, and the U.S. Forest Service, as well as organizations <br />outside the network. They are now viewed as generally accepted <br />terms within the smart growth community for describing the <br />range of rural towns, villages, and centers, particularly given <br />their consideration of communities' built and natural environ- <br />ments and their role in broader regional economies. <br />3 USDA.
