Get Urban America, Ltd. > > Mission

 

 

1. To teach Americans, a predominately suburban culture, about the joys and benefits of city living, thereby creating residential demand in cities large and small.

2. To provide a valuable service to second and third-tier cities seeking to enhance their urban landscape and offer the option of a quality urban living environment for their residents.

 

The study of cities is a swirl of academic disciplines that includes urban planning, sociology, economics, and even psychology.  Urban development is extremely complex, and many experts in universities, consulting firms, and in government are ever-testing the latest research models and watching trends. 

Get Urban America, Ltd. believes that in order to build sustainable, vibrant urban places, city leaders, developers, and urban enthusiasts must first understand and accept that most Americans simply do not like cities.   No amount of planning or investment can match the power of America's anti-urban culture, and millions must want to live in cities in order for true urban revitalization to occur.
