This project investigates population changes in communities that shift to economies centered around national amenities. Over the last four decades some regions have moved from dependence on extractive industries, such as ranching, farming, mining, or logging, to economies centered around natural amenities. This transition is accompanied by population change, which can have widespread effects on socioeconomic, cultural, political, and environmental aspects of a community. This research will investigate conditions under which amenity development fosters gentrification, the effects of amenity development and resulting population shifts on the distribution of opportunity and influence, and practices that lead communities down alternative paths. Findings of this research will help communities identify opportunities and strategies to transition to an economy centered around amenity development while minimizing negative impacts. Data for this project will be collected through interviews in three locations: a long-time amenity destination, a new amenity destination, and an emerging amenity destination. Informants will be chosen to reflect three kinds of amenity development: bedroom communities, tourism destinations, and retirement destinations. Data will be coded using grounded theory coding methods. This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目调查了转向以国家福利为中心的经济的社区的人口变化。 在过去的四十年里，一些地区已经从依赖牧场、农业、采矿或伐木等采掘业转向以自然设施为中心的经济。 这种转变伴随着人口变化，这可能对社区的社会经济，文化，政治和环境方面产生广泛的影响。 这项研究将调查条件下，便利设施的发展促进绅士化，便利设施的发展和由此产生的人口转移的机会和影响力的分布，以及做法，导致社区的替代路径。 这项研究的结果将帮助社区确定机会和战略，过渡到以舒适发展为中心的经济，同时尽量减少负面影响。该项目的数据将通过在三个地点进行访谈来收集：一个长期的舒适目的地，一个新的舒适目的地，和一个新兴的舒适目的地。 将选择举报人，以反映三种舒适的发展：卧室社区，旅游目的地和退休目的地。 该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
