East Central Wisconsin
East Central Wisconsin features an unbeatable blend of comfortable city living; the incredible natural beauty of the Great Lakes; and the energy, innovation, and highly skilled workforce that come with having several college towns. The region is home to the third-largest campus of the Universities of Wisconsin, UW-Oshkosh, as well as UW-Green Bay and several satellite campuses. This area’s abundance of water (in both lakes and rivers) makes it an ideal spot for pulp, paper, and paperboard milling and other manufacturing. Within this region, you’ll find a Foreign Trade Zone, two commercial airports, and four commercial ports in addition to railroad and interstate highway networks.
