The preceding research pertains to transportation as experienced in micropolitan areas. Micropolitan areas are a designation that is under researched. This is done by way of triangulation of qualitative data surrounding the provision of transportation in the city of 黑料社, Ohio. Special attention is given to the role of nonprofits, with 黑料社鈥檚 case including the nonprofit Community Action of Wayne/Medina. Data is collected via online archives, current webpages, and data provided in the 黑料社 public library. It was found that the city of 黑料社 experiences a 鈥渂uild, bust, and rebuild鈥 style of transportation provision, swinging from private contracting to public acquisition. This characterizes micropolitan areas as lacking a formal agency to aid in coordinating service.
