Accessibility

Evaluating where to start or relocate a business depends so much on the accessibility of the area. Accessibility is a large category that encompasses roads, air-service, rail, shipping options, and high-speed telecommunications.

Our community’s location is equidistant between New York City and Miami. This location along the eastern portion of the United States, means a company has access to over 57% of the US population within a 650-mile radius. Only 40 minutes away from the City of Monroe, the Charlotte Douglas International Airport, the 6th largest major airline hub in the nation, provides daily nonstop service to London, Frankfurt and Paris; therefore, making your business location in Monroe at most one plane change away from virtually any major city in the world. If you prefer flying charter or own your own plane, the Charlotte-Monroe Executive Airport is a reliever airport for Charlotte-Douglas and provides excellent service to our customer base. Monroe’s Airport is becoming the choice for private flights due to its close proximity to the wealthiest areas of the Region and State.

With three major interstate systems, excellent state highways, and the ease of rail access has helped make this Region the 2nd largest trucking center in the Southeast and 11th nationally. With Monroe’s position near the heart of the Region, connected via US 74 just minutes from Interstates I-485, I-77, and I-85, as well as, a CSX Railroad Main Line running through the center of the City, provide very easy access to the deepwater ports of Charleston and Wilmington.

Finally, Fiber optic services and broadband internet are easily accessible within the City of Monroe. The telecommunications services provided locally through Verizon allow companies with international or large telecommunication needs to keep in contact with their clients, suppliers, and headquarters facilities; therefore, it is no surprise that so many domestic and international companies have decided to come to Monroe to take advantage of our reliable, easy access..
