Abstract

Military expansion can profoundly affect surrounding communities, which are often rural and have low capacities for accommodating rapid growth and associated impacts. Urban growth models that can assist community planning are often complex and costly. We describe a case study in a rural, coastal region of the American state of North Carolina that has been affected by rapid military expansion. The study used informant interviews and analysis of land-use plans to contextualize a review of urban growth models that fit local needs and capacities. Our findings suggest a method for selecting modeling tools that match community-specific capacities and needs that can be applied in other regions experiencing rapid, military-induced growth.
