| A Village is a small settlement usually found in a rural setting. Some geographers define villages as having between 500 and 2,500 people. In most parts of the world, a village is not considered to be large enough to be called an urban area. These villages usually are involved in only one economic activity like fishing, mining, or farming. Villages provide basic goods and services for the inhabitants of the village and for people in a small hinterland around the village. Villages are often centers of local government. Villages provide more services than a hamlet can offer, but not as much as a town. |
