This bill establishes a uniform definition of 'rural area' across all rural development programs administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It amends the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act to replace references to 'urbanized' areas with 'urban' areas and consolidates multiple definitional provisions into a single standard. The bill also updates the Rural Electrification Act of 1936 and the Housing Act of 1949 to reference this uniform definition, with an effective date of 180 days after enactment.
