Northwest Indiana
A great place to live, work, play and grow
The opportunities for individuals and businesses abound with our access to Lake Michigan, proximity to Chicago and our extensive transportation system. We are an international leader for the steel industry. We enjoy the benefits of cultural opportunities with the Chicago Loop generally less than an hour's drive from most points in Northwest Indiana.
The lakefront provides unlimited opportunities for commerce and shipping with one of the most modern ports in the world, endless recreational opportunities along it's beaches and marinas, and world-class gaming opportunities. The Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore showcases and preserves the natural beauty of Lake Michigan's southern shore. A growing International airport and extensive highway and rail systems move people and goods quickly and efficiently through our communities to almost anywhere in the world! Additionally, Northwest Indiana has some of the most productive farmland in the country.
From small rural towns to growing suburbs to industrial cities, Northwest Indiana offers an environment for you to call home. Communities like Gary, Hammond, East Chicago and Whiting provide an extensive industrial base and history rich neighborhoods for Northwest Indiana, often referred to as America's Workshop. Suburban communities such as Dyer, Schererville and St. John are experiencing unprecedented growth as people have "discovered" Northwest Indiana as an ideal home in greater Chicagland. Small towns like Chesterton, Crown Point, Demotte, Hebron and Valparaiso retain their historic charm while keeping pace with growth and development. Great schools, a strong industrial/manufacturing base, recreational opportunities and traditional community values have made Northwest Indiana a great place to live and work for more than 150 years and will only get better in the years to come. Whatever you are looking for, you will find it here. We invite you to look at all we have to offer!
