The document discusses what defines a community and describes three types of communities - urban, suburban, and rural. An urban community is defined as a large area with many people and buildings, like a city. A suburban community is medium-sized, located near a large city, with houses close together along with parks and malls. A rural community has houses farther apart with fewer people and may include farms and forests. All three types have places for people to live, work, and play, but the specifics of housing, jobs, and recreation vary between urban, suburban, and rural communities.
