Types of Community

This document defines a community as a place where people work, play, and live. It identifies three main types of communities: urban, suburban, and rural. Urban communities are large with many people and buildings, like cities. Suburban communities are medium-sized and near large cities, with houses close together and parks/malls. Rural communities have houses farther apart with fewer people and may include farms and forests. All communities provide places for residents to live, work, and play, though the types of housing, jobs, and recreation vary between urban, suburban, and rural areas.
