A brief Facebook post described a community as “A great place to live, work, and start a business,” using social media to promote the area to residents and entrepreneurs.
The post provided no additional details about which community, local programs or incentives accompany the message. Short social media messages such as this are a common tool for local governments, chambers of commerce and economic development organizations to raise awareness and attract new residents and businesses.
Communities that advertise themselves in this way typically emphasize factors that matter to people and employers: quality of life, available workforce, affordable housing, transportation links and support for startups. Economic development officials often combine such messaging with targeted outreach, events and incentives to encourage investment and job creation.
Without further information from the original poster, it is unclear whether this message is part of a larger campaign or a standalone post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
