Rural, Urban, and Suburban
Grade 1 · Social Studies · Families and Communities · Kentucky, USA
Lesson Summary
Learn the difference between city, country, and in-between places.
Explanation
Communities come in three main types. An urban community is a city with lots of buildings, people, and busy streets. A rural community is out in the country with farms, open land, and fewer people. A suburban community is in between — it is near a city but has more houses and yards. Each type of community has its own look and feel, but all of them are places where people live, work, and help each other.
