Abstract

Factor analysis was used to identify structural relationships in data for Idaho communities. Six significant factors were identified, supporting recognized associations between rural development and natural resources, education, employment opportunities and government actions. Factor analysis, in conjunction with regression, links the structural and spatial facets of communities targeted for development.
