Character Towns as Entrepreneurial Cities.

Character Towns are Ideal Entrepreneurial Cities. 

Character towns are not just pretty places; when well designed, they accommodate innovators, social and economic adventurers and all sorts of entrepreneurs, some of whom are city employees. Such a city appreciates people interested in doing things in a new and better way. Such a city may use enterprise funds, risk management services and quasi-business ventures within city hall to benefit from the same spirit experienced by the private business community. An atmosphere of innovation and investment, with a responsible understanding of risk, can permeate city hall and the community. Leadership and entrepreneurialism in city hall and on main street are important characteristics of a successful character town that is also an entrepreneurial city.
