Community characteristics that influence site quality are the educational attainment of adult population, the size of the local manufacturing base, the civilian labor force size, and whether or not the community is in a metropolitan area.
While communities can improve the quality of local industrial sites by purchasing larger tracts of land that have good highway and railroad access, there are other community characteristics, such as educational attainment and labor force size, which limit the impact communities can have on improving the quality of their industrial sites.
Communities in the other regions appear to be at some disadvantage in attracting industry because of the limited number of firms that have identified those regions as acceptable for location.

 Is Community Informatics
While the practice of using information and communication technology to serve communities has been around for some time, the definition of that practice and the study of its effects is still emerging as a field.  So young is this emerging field that the Community Informatics Research Network was founded only in fall of 2003.
Community Informatics as a field of practice is much more developed.  Indeed, many of those now working in Community Informatics as a field of study began by working in it as a field of practice.  And they have brought those interests with them.
[45] In this model, community development is the practice of “bricks and mortar” physical development.  Community organizing is a confrontational social action form of community building where community members advocate for themselves.  Advocacy is where professional activists advocate on behalf of a community, and service delivery is the typical form of social services.

 The Community Character of the Rural Industry in China and Its Spatial Agglomeration
The community character of the rural enterprise, or the communitirization of the rural enterprise, is the appearance of a kind of completely harmonious and inter-dependent status between the rural enterprise and the community that it is in.
For the community members and the community government, the rural enterprises are their main source of funding, with the thought of never flowing the fat water to others' field rooted in their mind, no one would like the ready source of money to be migrated to an alien land.
Though the community government relegates the rural industry to the managers again, since the community government as a factual owner intervenes the enterprise entirely, the goals of the enterprise become multiplied and communitirized, the surplus of the enterprise is partitioned allroundly.

 Community College Week - The independent voice servicing community, junior and technical colleges.
Community college administrators often get so wrapped up in problems and politics that many observations that should be apparent may not even flash in their minds.
It flies against the overall image of community colleges.  We have been positioned over the years as schools who do not necessarily seek the best students, but schools that seek to make our students the best they can be.
Community colleges worked hard to meet every need for learning and each request for training to help their communities.  We believed this horizontal expansion would be seen as a mission-driven function and bring value to our image.  Community colleges began to grab whatever was out there from teaching CAD to card shuffling.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Rule of St. Benedict
Chapter 62 lays down that precedence in the community shall be determined by the date of admission, merit of life, or the appointment of the abbot.
It is only another example of the family idea that pervaded the entire Rule, by means of which the members of the community are bound together by a family tie, and each takes upon himself the obligation of persevering in his monastery until death, unless sent elsewhere by his superiors.
It is true that as communities became rich and consequently less dependent upon their own labours for support, the primitive fervour for the Rule diminished, and for this reason charges of corruption and absolute departure from monastic ideals have been made against monks.

Less than one-third of the breadwinners of the small-farm community were agricultural workers while nearly two-thirds of those gainfully employed in the large-farm community were agricultural workers.
So many farm people were kicked off their farms and communities that society and social services and institutions nearly collapsed in a huge swath of the countryside of the United States.
Rural America is falling apart: In the place of flourishing rural communities, one sees poor people and decaying social organizations, rural ghettos with farmers on public assistance, main streets of dealers, brokers and agents.

The idea of relocating most of the American population within one generation to brave new communities only just carved out of hay fields was a bit heady—somewhat reminiscent of modern efforts to end drug abuse with pills, to stop racism with school buses, to eliminate poverty by writing checks.
