Learn how the two 2024 finalists, Maumee and Norfolk, are making their communities strong.
The Strong Towns Approach.
A “strong town” is any town, big or small, that prioritizes making progress in transportation, housing, and fiscal resiliency for the long-term benefit of its people. It is not a “perfect” town, nor does every strong town look the same. This is because strong towns incrementally adapt to the conditions and challenges of their specific place from the bottom up.
See how 16 communities are implementing the Strong Towns approach. Use the guidance of this year's contestants and the past 8 Strongest Town Contest champions to learn how you can continue building your own Strong Town.
