Wish to know the relevant variables or parameters that are important to be considered to assess liveability in any rural settlement/ non-urban settlement.

For some of the complexities and unexpected aspects of rural resilience in the face of natural/human-made disasters and political views and programs affecting rural life ways see the following publication about resilience on the Mississippi River Delta in the state of Louisiana, USA: McCall, Grant S. and Russell D. Greaves, 2022. Creating a diversion: why the Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion (MBSD) project is unpopular among coastal communities in southeast Louisiana.
