- About Parma, Italy. From NPR All Things Considered (2000). [Editor note: I would like to do a side-by-side, 400-year comparison, with Parma, Michigan. Parma, Michigan, is a small community just 20 miles from my home town. I believe there is a story to be told about more intentional communities surviving and thriving while less intentional communities face more downs and ups as the winds of the world bring changing conditions. — Tom Stanton]
