Abstract

Abstract A company town is a settlement built and operated by a single business enterprise. Most company towns appeared between 1830 and 1930 during the early industrial age, an age that Lewis Mumford called the “paleotechnic era. Technology was primitive and the operations performed in these settlements can be characterized as primary and labor-intensive.
