INDUSTRIAL
As the main East/West connector in the State of Florida, I-4 has made Polk County a hotbed for industrial activity. From Q3 2018 to Q3 2019, the county added more than $235,000,000 to the assessed value of industrial inventory. In the same time frame, there were approximately 4,400 new jobs created (bls.gov). This is great news for everybody, and we have many businesses, organizations, and authorities here in our community to thank for their hard work over
the past year.
