Marion County Development works to build a stronger Marion County where people want to live, businesses can grow and new opportunities can take root. We support our nationally recognized manufacturing and industrial base, help existing businesses and entrepreneurs grow, attract new investment and work with our communities on housing, workforce and quality-of-life needs.
Trade the city congestion for lake views, wooded trails, and room to breathe, with over 50% of Marion County residents living within a half mile of a park. Just 45 minutes from the Des Moines metro, weekend getaways are easy, but around here, adventure doesn’t wait for the weekend. With global employers and small-town living, you can grow your career without sacrificing your pace of life.
