Vancouver, WA

Strategically located at the intersection of I-5 and the Columbia River, Vancouver is exceptionally positioned to reach major West Coast, Midwest and international markets. A rapidly-growing city, Vancouver combines the excitement of a major metropolitan area with small-town charm and abundant recreational opportunities. Vancouver’s newly-developed waterfront is a regional destination with restaurants, wine bars and residential and office towers. Vancouver employers have access to a labor pool of nearly two million workers within a 30-mile radius, as well as an ample supply of development-ready land, competitive lease rates, abundant clean water and low utility rates. Vancouver's business-friendly tax environment (no corporate or personal state income taxes) continues to attract pioneering companies such as Zoominfo and Absci. Learn more here.
