A great location for your company!
Located on the Ohio River in Southwest Indiana, the Evansville region has a skilled and productive work force, low operating costs, excellent intermodal transportation facilities, low utility rates, fully serviced industrial sites and an outstanding quality of life.
The Evansville region is strategically located 60 miles south of the Median Center of U.S. Population (A point where latitude and longitude lines intersect and the population is the same on all sides.) A modern well equipped air-carrier airport, state-of-the-art telecommunications infrastructure, excellent highways, railroads and river ports connect the Evansville region with the huge markets of the nation's manufacturing centers and international destinations.
The economic base of the region is anchored by large manufacturing facilities of major corporations including: Toyota, Whirlpool, ALCOA, AK Steel, GE Plastics, Bristol-Myers Squibb and more. The expansion and continuing investment of area companies is a strong vote of confidence in the Evansville region. For example, Toyota added a second assembly plant to its manufacturing complex near Princeton bringing its total investment in Southwest Indiana to $2.8 billion since 1996.
Evansville is the largest city in the Evansville, IN-Henderson, KY metropolitan area (MSA) and the hub of a 20 county tri-state region (Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois). The population of the 6 county metropolitan area is 345,900 and the region has a population of over 717,000. The population within 30 miles of Evansville is more than 435,000 and the regional workforce is well over 200,000.
In addition to being a hub for major manufacturers, Evansville is the center of retailing, banking and financial services, medical services and entertainment. The large scale manufacturing facilities in the region have spawned the growth of companies that provide support services such as: automation and process control, industrial motor repair, machine shops, pattern and mold shops and more.
The earnings of workers employed in manufacturing have stimulated activity in retailing and services and have also fueled a great deal of growth in housing. The impressive strength of the economic base of the region has had a positive affect on both businesses and families and has made it easy for us to describe Southwest Indiana, the Evansville Region as a place "Where Businesses and Families Thrive."
