Community Studies
Oregon State University provides community leaders with research-based information about their local social and economic conditions, the context within which they must make decisions, and effective strategies for achieving various community development objectives. In collaboration with community leaders, extension faculty produce comprehensive rural community profiles that provide essential information on local economic, demographic, and land-use conditions and trends, as well as economic, social, and policy strategies.
