About Green Bay
Green Bay is located in northeast Wisconsin, where the Fox River empties into the Bay of Green Bay. The City spans over 46 square miles and is called home by over 102,000 hard working citizens. The City of Green Bay has always had a diverse culture and today is no exception. People of Latino heritage along with Hmong, African Americans, American Indians and others call this place home, each contributing in their own way to the
economic growth and stability of the City.
Green Bay’s economy is as diverse as its residents. Often referred to as the ‘paper capital of the world’, Green Bay has grown beyond its paper industry history. Downtown Green Bay is home to local, county, and state government buildings, as well as a growing financial services sector. Supporting these growing sectors is a thriving hospitality, convention and entertainment district that attracts people from around the Midwest. In addition, the City’s several business parks are home to industry giants and a growing advanced manufacturing sector. These businesses call Green Bay home because of its hard working labor force, international deep port access, and residents’ entrepreneurial spirit that fosters new ideas and technology that keeps Green Bay’s economy strong.
Our largest industries include healthcare, paper products, food processing, financial and government services. Green Bay has been acclaimed as the Best Medium-Sized City to Start a Business, a Top 100 Community in the U.S. for Young People, one of the top five Places in the Nation to Raise a Family, and fourth Best Place to Live in the Country.
