The Strongest Town Contest celebrates progress, not perfection. A "strong town" is any town, big or small, that is taking tangible steps to overcome its transportation, housing, or financial challenges. Strong Towns refers to this methodology as the "Strong Towns Approach," and this contest spotlights the work of city residents and leaders who are using this approach to become more resilient over time.
Strong Towns is a 501c(3) non-profit and media advocacy organization that shifts conversations around the North American development pattern. Through reports, articles, podcasts, videos, live events, and professional coaching, it provides knowledge and tools to help cities transform their communities. Learn more at StrongestTown.com.
