Rural America : Aspects, Outlooks and Development, Volume 3 PDF

Our rural communities are home to some of the most hard working and fiercely self-reliant Americans in the United States.

Strong and secure rural communities are essential to creating an economy built to last that rewards hard work and responsibility--not outsourcing, loopholes, and risky financial deals.

While the security of the middle class has been threatened by the irresponsible financial collapse and the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, rural Americans continue to come together to work hard and make ends meet.

The values that have helped hard-working, responsible families weather the storm continue to move our economy forward.

This book lays out the economic landscape rural America faces today and presents some of the Administration's many efforts to promote economic growth and job creation in rural communities with a focus on broadband loan and grant programs in the USDA's rural utilities service; and rural water infrastructure, water supply and sewer systems.
