This region borders New York City, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. It is near the center of the country’s busiest rail corridor, boasts six interstate highways, and easy access to six international airports. With over 30 colleges and universities, the Hudson Valley maintains a highly educated labor force.
This region’s seven counties are geographically, demographically, and economically diverse, with a mix of urban areas, waterfront cities, rural villages, farmlands, and forests.
The Hudson Valley has a critical mass of industry and research: over 60 biotech companies and the Hudson Valley Research Park, home to IBM's 300mm semiconductor fabrication facility.
The Hudson Valley is also a major tourist destination: its rich scenic, historical, cultural and recreational resources include iconic 19th century mansions, the nation’s oldest winery, outlet shopping, and the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park.
