farm community

Rural residential area

A farm community is a rural settlement where agriculture forms the economic and social foundation.

Residents typically share interests in farming, land use, and rural life.

The term can describe both the physical area and its people: The farm community opposed the new zoning regulations.

It often implies shared values around self-reliance and connection to the land.
