Source: Town and Village.

The entry for Town states: "In general, today towns can be differentiated from townships, villages, or hamlets on the basis of their economic character, in that most of a town's population will tend to derive their living from manufacturing industry, commerce, and public services rather than primary sector industries such as agriculture or related activities."

The entry for Village states: "Homes were situated together for sociability and defense, and land surrounding the living quarters was farmed."

Source for The lack of industrialization and commerce: First hand. New Carlisle has a long history of disavowing commerce, from running Burger King Franchisees out of town, to recently only accepting the construction of a battery production plant after the owners bribed town hall by paying to rebuild the water infrastructure, despite the heavily negative reaction from the general public, as well as a majority of town council. There is nothing about New Carlisle, Indiana, that would allow it's categorization to be that of a town, except recent changes of the definition of town to include settlements with a population of less than 2,000.

Thats on top of the miscategorization of Hudson Lake, Indiana, as an Unincorporated Town. This area should be categorized as an Unincorporated Community.
