Abstract
A key decision corporations must make is site selection. Such decisions have been receiving increasing attention, as companies begin to appreciate how site location can affect the bottom line and future prospects for a firm. The article presents the major factors and individual items that should enter such decisions. Finally, the article concludes with a typology of community-specific studies that are generated to support site selection decisions. These studies are presented from two perspectives: that of the company making the location decision and that of the community determining what package to present to existing and potential companies.
