Our Region Has Come Together…
The structure of our region is unique in North America. Typically, metropolitan areas are formed around a single or pair of traditional urban centers. Our region has followed a very distinct and much faster pattern of growth than anywhere else in the Untied States. In most areas, growth occurs concentric to large cities. Our region is different, as it is comprised of 84 cities with five main urban components, closely linked and interwoven into seven counties. Business, community and government leaders are now facing issues extending beyond those county lines. myregion.org is a mechanism for these towns, cities, counties, businesses and civic organizations to set regional priorities and work together to accomplish them.
