Been debating the setup of my wordpress front for my local area guide. I think I decided upon the optimal solution:
Twisting Wordpress Into A Local Area Guide/Directory | eurekadiary.com
It's a lengthy post, so to summarize: basically to use pages as if they were categories, hacking up a custom template for each to give them somewhat of a "static category" feel and later on implementing a wordpress post loop into the page template once the site grows.
Still open to other ideas, but I think this works best for now. Since there has been a lot of discussion on local area directories as of late, I think this could help a lot of others in my shoes.
