We’re a lively place.
The Louisville Region is a great place to live and work, and a great place to locate or grow your business. Our 15-county bi-state region has top notch and diverse talent, a competitive cost of doing business, a pro-business environment, and a robust workforce pipeline that includes work-ready skill building, industry-specific training programs, employer networks, job placement, university-industry partnerships, and customized talent attraction solutions.
With a workforce participation rate above the national average and steady population growth over the last several decades, Louisville is becoming one of the most attractive places to do business. Since 2023, Site Selection Magazine, the nation’s leading publication for corporate expansion and area economic development, has named Louisville a Top U.S. Metro for Economic Development each year. As a metro with a population of more than 1 million people. The accolades do not stop there. The Louisville Region consistently tops the ranks for most affordable metros, and most inclusive cities. With recently passed state and local policies to reduce production-based taxes, the region is also on-track to making a name for itself for its top tier business climate.
