How Should An Ideal Community Look Like?

IDEAL COMMUNITY NAME INSTRUCTOR COURSE Ideal Community Having reviewed a number of works and perceptions of various scholars, I have come to realize that everyone has his own perception of how an ideal community should look like. The selection of the elements of the ideal community depends on the culture, norms, upbringing and values of the individual envisioning the ideal community. However, the major task is to develop and construct the community in a such a manner that the underlying concepts, values and the administrative system in based on key principles that will be ideal for all people who will reside in that community regardless of their background.

On the other hand, it will have all the necessary resources such grocery stores, health centers, cafes, recreational centers and many more that promotes a harmonious dwelling in the ideal community. Urban centers have proved to be efficient in access to various services and opportunities; therefore, I will construct my ideal community for my family and I in an urban center.
