Building community framed as an economic development strategy
Original: Guest Opinion: The ultimate economic development strategy? Creating community
A guest opinion column in the Mountain View Voice argues that creating community is the ultimate strategy for economic development. The piece suggests that fostering social connection, shared spaces and local engagement strengthens a place's economy, presenting community-building not as a soft goal but as a core driver of growth and prosperity for cities and neighborhoods.
Why now: The argument reframes economic policy around social cohesion, which invites debate among residents, planners and business leaders.
