Abstract: Abstract It only takes one’s eyes to see that urban and rural economies are different. They vary in terms of size, isolation, topography, and industrial structure. While there are exceptions to the rule, urban economies have outperformed rural economies over time. A common problem with struggling rural economies is that they are dependent upon a single resource-based industry, such as agriculture, mining, and forestry.
