Improve Local Economy

Trails enhance an areas marketability by connecting neighborhoods to parks, schools and retail establishments. The area becomes a more desirable place to live and nearby property values increase. Homebuyers indicate walking and biking trails are an important amenity in making purchase decisions. The Warrick Trails project has the potential to help attract the brightest in all areas of business and stimulate the local economy.

When we’re being compared to other cities, we need to have similar selling points to retain talent in any field.
