Seeking Development Opportunities
The City of La Porte has a solid, diverse economy that:
- Attracts billions of dollars in industrial trade and investment,
- Maintains a daytime employment of 154,000
- Boasts a high average household income of $72,000
- Provides access to over 6 million tourists
Even with this solid foundation, the City of La Porte suffers from a lack of new retail, restaurant, and/or mixed use development.
Incentives
