Why Dubuque?
Dubuque offers career and business opportunities in pace with today’s technology-driven economy, yet it features a small town’s warmth, friendliness, and freedom from hassles. The Greater Dubuque area provides a superior and attractive environment to support your business success.
During the past 10 years, our businesses have succeeded and continue to diversify the economy. The area has attracted a wealth of advanced manufacturing, health care, technology, publishing, financial services, and tourism related companies. The area is a magnet not only for professionals, but for hard-working, skilled persons.
The Greater Dubuque workforce is the foundation of our community. We boast a highly educated and motivated workforce, which has grown to support economic expansions of recent years. Area colleges, universities, and comprehensive community colleges not only provide diverse fields of study and expertise to incoming students, but are a resource to businesses for continuing education and professional development.
The Greater Dubuque “difference” is a high quality of life and a convenient location. There are plenty of tax and business incentives, but for many employers, the attractive landscape and change of seasons, welcoming atmosphere, and recreational amenities play an equal role in the decision to locate here.
More Profitable in Dubuque
A Dubuque location will save both time and money. Forbes Magazine noted that Dubuque’s cost of doing business is the 13th lowest in the entire U.S. According to Paragon Decision Resources, Dubuque’s overall costs for a manufacturing operation are much more competitive than some of the nation’s leading industry centers—a whopping 31% lower than Minneapolis, 24% lower than Detroit, 21% lower than Cleveland, and 24% lower than St. Louis.
Dubuque is within just a 2 day drive of 74.6% of the entire United States population. We also sit in the backyard of the 3rd largest city in America: Chicago.
