Learning Objective
I can compare and contrast the characteristics of urban, suburban, and rural communities.
- 1
An urban community is large and highly populated, with many tall buildings and busy transportation.
- 2
A suburban community is located near a city and is less populated than an urban community; many people commute to a nearby city for work.
- 3
A rural community has very few people and buildings and mainly consists of farmland.
