Economic Development Strategy
The purpose of economic development is to enhance the business environment for a range of business, and their leaders, managers and employees. To do this, economic developers seek ways to strengthen the community’s capacity for business attraction, retention, and expansion, and strengthen the community’s tax base. As we will discuss in this report, all of these goals require the creation of a place that will attract people and give them a high quality of life – business leaders, entrepreneurs, residents, families, visitors, and workers.
The purpose of this study is to use data analysis and engagement with community leaders and stakeholders to understand Greenville’s economic and housing status. This information then will inform the development of strategies in support of economic development and continued growth of Greenville’s economy as the Town exits the Act 47 process.

OUR COMMUNITY
Greenville's Community is Strong.
The Town of Greenville has a deep-seated sense of fellowship, proving to be its strongest asset. Active citizens, community organizations, institutions, the business community, and the municipal government work together to create a tightly-knit community. Let's take a look at some of the partners that define us:
Over 1,000 kind-hearted volunteers from the Town came together for a remarkable 4-day period to construct a brand new playground in Riverside Park. The Greenville Area has been thriving lately with various community initiatives. The Committee to Promote Greenville has successfully raised funds to install a new community sign in front of the Municipal Building, providing information on public events. The Women's Action Group has sponsored a downtown mural, adding to the town's charm. Additionally, three new businesses have opened in the downtown area in the past six months. Our local fire department has maintained a Class 4 ISO fire rating, allowing homeowners and businesses to benefit from lower insurance rates. One of the biggest highlights of the town is Heritage Days, taking place on the first weekend of July, attracting thousands of people to Riverside Park for demonstrations and a car show on Main Street. It's also worth mentioning that Greenville has been the host community for the Greenville Symphony Orchestra since 1929, with concerts held at Thiel's Passavant Center. The Greenville Area Community Theatre is always welcoming volunteers and features many talented individuals.
