mountain community
Elevated residential area
A mountain community is a town or settlement located in mountainous terrain, typically characterized by elevation, rugged geography, and relative isolation.
Such communities often share distinct features: limited access roads, winter weather challenges, outdoor recreation culture, and tight-knit social bonds born of geographic remoteness.
The mountain community rallied after the wildfire.
