Despite the fact that the rural commuter belts of cities are major
loci of population change, economic growth and dynamic social
change within city regions, most research tends to ignore this area
while focusing on the built-up city core. However, with the current
emphasis on the role of rural areas in policy debates, it is vital
to recognize the importance of the 'commuter belt'. By comparing
four major European cities (in England, France, Germany and Spain),
this book offers the first comparative investigation of the
dynamism of city rural hinterlands. It assesses whether rural areas
will become effectively integrated into quality of life
improvements as a result of their inter-dependencies with cities,
focusing on the critical arenas of employment change, housing and
service provision. In doing so, it investigates how change in these
three fields impact on the quality of life and physical environment
of rural hinterlands.
