Small town America has a new allure according to economic developer and author Kim Huston who tells all in her new book Small Town Sexy: The Allure of Living in Small Town America. Huston is passionate about small town life. She reveals why residents love their not-so-big-city lifestyle and how small town charms are seducing newcomers. Huston speaks from experience, as a small town girl who cherishes her roots-and as a professional who is helping develop her town's economic prosperity. "Small towns aren't just for small businesses anymore. The internet has made sure of that . . . Towns joining the wired world of technology realize that you don't need an office tower in Big City USA to do a million dollar deal, you can do it from Main Street USA." The romance reaches beyond business interests. "There are twenty- to forty-year-olds coming back home with a real desire to raise their families in communities where they grew up. And, retirees are drawn to many small towns that have the climate, recreational opportunities and accessibility to highways and airports that they are seeking."
