Research Parks Can Be a Rural Development Tool

Harvey A. Goldstein and Michael I. Luger

Rural America/ Rural Development Perspectives, 1994, vol. 09, issue 2

Abstract: Although most research parks are in metro areas, a few appear to be successful in nonmetro areas. The presence of a university and the pool of research and development expertise it provides are essential to the development of nonmetro parks. The longer a park has been operating, regardless of location, the better its chances of adding to employment growth in the local area.
