Determinants of exurban indutrialization with local economic development implications

Article Abstract:

Exurban industrialization offers manufacturing growth prospects to rural communities which are gearing toward urbanization. The determinants of exurban industrialization such as manufacturing employment base, wages, value added and several socioeconomic factors were evaluated. The results showed that exurban regions possess both positive and negative determinants. Thus, they should create programs that would enhance their positive growth determinants and minimize negative factors.

The rural community development process is discussed.
