Comprised of Dearborn, Franklin, Ohio, Ripley, Switzerland, and Union Counties, the region is home to 1.84% of the state’s population. The region’s deeply rooted music and craft traditions, visible history, connection to the Ohio River, rich natural assets, and proximity to Cincinnati provide tremendous opportunity. 

A bolder Southeast Indiana starts with the natural beauty of our region is one of our vital assets, but we are more than just a scenic stop between Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky. Together we are crafting a regional vision where natural beauty meets economic vitality, where educational opportunities pave the way for generational prosperity, and where the dream of affordable living becomes a reality.
