Abstract
Generally, Australians consider that small towns are declining and there is not much that can be done about it. This paper argues that only certain sorts of towns (largely inland) are declining and that a lot can be done about it, provided there is the will. A small town in South-Western Queensland is used as a case study over a five year period and key issues are identified which can assist small towns to help themselves revitalise.Keywords
