She dives into the body of research around place attachment--the deep sense of connection that binds some of us to our cities and increases our physical and emotional well-being--then travels to towns across America to see it in action. Inspired by a growing movement of placemaking, she examines what its practitioners are doing to create likeable locales. She also speaks with frequent movers and loyal stayers around the country to learn what draws highly mobile Americans to a new city, and what makes us stay. The best ideas she imports to her adopted hometown of Blacksburg for a series of Love Where You Live experiments designed to make her feel more locally connected. Dining with her neighbors. Shopping Small Business Saturday. Marching in the town Christmas parade. Can these efforts make a halfhearted resident happier? Will Blacksburg be the place she finally stays? What Warnick learns will inspire you to embrace your own community--and perhaps discover that the place where you live right now...is home."--From dust jacket. 650 0 $a Place attachment. 650 0 $a Place attachment $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Environmental psychology. 650 0 $a Neighborhoods $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Human beings $x Effect of environment on. 941 $a 20 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716020126.0 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611021653.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013941.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305022519.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012013532.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201020906.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909041432.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722053229.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110065212.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717031553.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006100235.0 952 $l ELPC715 $d 20170207115802.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20161216033235.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20160908011422.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20160908010849.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20160824010255.0 952 $l YBPC572 $d 20160817072306.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20160810012208.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20160802013812.0 952 $l BGPE251 $d 20160713010121.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=27C1F39847F611E6BC47F4DCDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
