Rural Crossroads Communities

This questionnaire has concluded - thank you to everyone who participated!


Crossroads communities are places in the Rural Area that have a historic small commercial center, typically at a literal crossroads, that may or may not still have active commercial uses or other community gathering places. Crossroads communities are meant to provide support services and opportunities to engage in community life for Rural Area community members. The current Comp Plan designates seven crossroads communities: Advance Mills, Batesville, Covesville, Free Union, Greenwood, Proffit, and White Hall.
