Clare J.A. Mitchell, an associate professor in the Department of Geography at the [[University of Waterloo]], argues that in Europe, counterurbanization involves a type of migration leading to deconcentration of one area to another that is beyond suburbanization or metro decentralization. Mitchell categorizes counterurbanization into three sub-types: ex-urbanization, displaced-urbanization, and anti-urbanization.<ref name="MakingSense">{{cite journal|last1=Mitchell|first1=Clare J.A|doi=10.1016/S0743-0167(03)00031-7|title=Making sense of counterurbanization|journal=Journal of Rural Studies|year=2004|volume=20|issue=1|pages=15–34}}</ref> |
