Rural Communities and Military Base Closures

Author

  • Stenberg, Peter L.

Abstract

For the last decade the Department of Defense has been undergoing a process of downsizing, including reducing the number of domestic bases. While most cuts in the number of military personnel have taken place in urban areas, rural areas have taken a proportionate share in the reductions. Although the negative economic impacts from base closures affect all areas, they are often much greater in rural communities than urban communities.
