En todo el mundo hay una tendencia cada vez mayor de migración humana de las zonas rurales y, en particular, de los asentamientos pequeños a los centros urbanos. La migración a los centros urbanos es más frecuente en los grupos de jóvenes adultos, lo que afecta a las industrias tradicionales, como la agricultura y los servicios conexos, y pone en peligro la sostenibilidad de los asentamientos rurales. En algunas ciudades rurales, la disminución de la población y la agricultura ha dado lugar a su deterioro social y económico. Este artículo presenta pequeños asentamientos, dos en Italia y dos en Australia, que han aprovechado muy eficazmente la localidad para desarrollar una próspera industria turística. El estudio proporciona una comparación y una evaluación de los datos sobre el número de visitantes y el gasto turístico en estas regiones que demuestran las tendencias de éxito y crecimiento. Se muestra cómo diversas industrias distintas del turismo a menudo en conjunción con características únicas o activos de una zona crear una tarjeta de sorteo importante para los turistas. De este modo, estas zonas obtienen importantes beneficios económicos, sociales y ambientales.
