City of Auburn

Big city amenities, small town feel.

Companies need a community partner that is agile, creative, and trustworthy. For the past 40 years Auburn has demonstrated those strengths by removing barriers and creating solutions that help companies to achieve their goals. 28 of the 43 industrial companies in Auburn are foreign owned.

Auburn has the cosmopolitan feel of a progressive and diverse community with a high quality of life. Auburn strategically targets technology-based value-add industries due to their alignment with the strengths of its community assets: a research university, technical schools, skilled workforce, the proximity to major metros and Atlanta Airport, a nationally ranked public school system, low taxes and an affordable utility cost.
