The Rural Livability Project has launched a website that helps answer questions about what makes a community a good place to live, work, and raise a family.
The Rural Livability Project, part of the Wisconsin Rural Partnerships Institute at UW–Madison, examines key dimensions such as entrepreneurship, housing, natural amenities, health, and local governance, among others. The project seeks to understand what supports livability in rural places.
The research behind the website uses diverse data, advanced methods, and comprehensive analytical frameworks to go beyond growth in uncovering the mechanisms that drive livability and make somewhere a good place to live, work, and raise a family. With this tool, communities have a way to measure success that goes beyond narrowly focusing on economic growth.
