Southern Ohio offers affordable industrial property and a quality workforce. These attributes are a couple reasons why companies such as Glatfelter, Kenworth Trucking Company, General Mills, Mills Pride and Milacron are located in this region. A first class transportation network provides favorable market access. The U.S. 23 corridor runs north-to-south connecting Toledo to Portsmouth, Ohio while the James A. Rhodes Appalachian Highway (Ohio 32) runs east-to-west connecting I-275 in Cincinnati to I-77 near Belpre, Ohio.
Pike County is proud to be called the home of USEC, Inc.'s American Centrifuge uranium enrichment demonstration and commercial production plants. The $1.025 billion project will create 500 high tech jobs over the next decade and puts the spotlight on a community that has supported the uranium enrichment industry for a half-century.
Southern Ohio borders three metropolitan areas including Cincinnati, Columbus, and Huntington, West Virginia. Most communities are state priority investment areas.
