Abstract: All major forms of local government are found in nonmetropolitan areas of the United States, including counties, municipalities, townships and towns and school districts. Even some of the more esoteric forms -- such as economic development districts and regional planning agencies -- are well represented in nonmetro regions, although innovation in governmental purpose and structure is a characteristic more common to metropolitan areas.
