Excerpts from Knight Foundation "Soul of the Community" survey more @ http://www.soulofthecommunity.org/
"An area’s physical beauty, opportunities for socializing and its openness to all people provide the emotional glue that keeps residents happily entrenched, the study has found.
Yet the survey also delves deeper, to explore whether communities with more attached residents are better off. So far, two years of results have found a significant relationship between people’s passion and loyalty for their community and local economic growth. Researchers will examine this connection further in 2010."
