Strong Towns Principle #1: Financial solvency is a prerequisite for long-term prosperity.

Strong Towns Principle #2: Land is the base resource from which community prosperity is built and sustained. It must not be squandered.
 
Strong Towns Principle #3: A transportation system is a means of creating prosperity in a community, not an end in itself.
 
Strong Towns Principle #4: Job creation and economic growth are the results of a healthy local economy, not substitutes for one.
 
Strong Towns Principle #5: Strong cities, towns, and neighborhoods cannot happen without strong citizens (people who care).
 
Strong Towns Principle #6: Local government is a platform for Strong Citizens to collaboratively build a prosperous place.
