Why Blount County?

Vibrant, dynamic, friendly, supportive and good business sense. Those are some of the comments our investing companies have voiced following their move to Blount County. Years ago, many companies came to Blount County because of low taxes, inexpensive labor and land. Today, while they still enjoy financial benefits, companies choose relocating to Blount County and the cities of Alcoa, Maryville, Rockford, Louisville, Friendsville and Townsend because of quality issues:

quality of the community
quality of life in a county that encompasses part of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, yet lies only 15 minutes from metropolitan Knoxville, the University of Tennessee and just 40 minutes from Oak Ridge National Laboratories and a hot bed of research and development.
