Abstract: Except for the magnitude of impact, many consequences of population loss in central cities are similar to impacts experienced by rural communities located in counties with population loss. For these urban and rural places, the key land use policy question is: How should the land resources and infrastructure improvements thereon be utilized in the face of economic and population decline? In contrast, when areas of rapid growth are visited, a very different picture often emerges. There, the overarching land use policy question is: How should the land resources be utilized and development occur in the face of population growth and expansion?
