Community development is the practice of improving the economic, social, and physical conditions of a neighborhood or region through initiatives like affordable housing, small business support, and infrastructure projects. Practitioners, often employed by nonprofits, local governments, or community development financial institutions, work collaboratively with residents to identify needs and mobilize resources. The field blends urban planning, grant writing, and grassroots organizing skills.
