Entrepreneurs don’t have to give up broadband or cultural access to the rest of the world to enjoy the laidback rural lifestyle Shelby County offers. The county is connected to the world via a modern fiber/cable infrastructure installed years ahead of the rest of the county offering five Internet service providers competing for your business. The cultural and athletic amenities of major metros are only 50 minutes away as are international flights. The nation’s busiest Interstate, I-80, sits away along the county’s southern edge. Iowa’s educational environment grows here as well with over 45% of the residents holding a college degree and over 90% of the high school students pursuing an advanced education. The community college is partnering with the school and development leaders to build a new 4,000 sq. ft. technology, entrepreneurial center this spring.
