You’re
cordially invitied to experience the finest in Hoosier hospitality, ingenuity
and pride in Spencer County. Known as “Lincolnland,” thanks to our Honest
Abe connections, our area also stands out in a crowd with its cutting-edge
approach to business and industry, cost of living standards, education
and health care options, and recreational opportunities. Our past may
be colorful, but it’s our future that shines.
Here, Mother Nature blesses the land in every direction from the southern
flood plains that adapt well to crops to the hilly northern clime perfect
for cattle. In fact, Purdue University experts rank Spencer County as
one of the most diverse agricultural
communities in Indiana. The university’s available numbers from 1996 and
’97 reveal area farmers planted 59,000 acres of corn, 54,300 acres of
soy, 577,300 pounds of wheat and 868,000 pounds of tobacco. The county
raises 16,400 head of cattle.
This rural image combines well with a booming commercial atmosphere that
includes a $12 million Spencer County Center, the $24 million Steelport
development, the South Chrisney Plaza, the Lincolnland Commerce Park and
the
Santa Claus Industrial Park.
Together, these elements present a lifestyle many strive to attain: a
good economy, a wealth of career opportunities, a modern attitude and
a view of unspoiled country
in your back yard.
