Belong Here. Live and work remotely in the Evansville Region.

Evansville is for the person who works from anywhere and wants somewhere worth being. Your work-from-anywhere day could look like coffee from a local shop a few minutes from home, into Cowork Evansville to focus for the morning, lunch somewhere on Haynie's Corner, and back at your desk before most people in bigger cities have cleared their commute. What you do with the hours you're not losing to traffic is up to you — the Ohio River Greenway, a show at the Victory Theatre, or just the backyard you can actually afford. Evansville is one of those rare places where the door is genuinely open.

By now you're probably wondering....what's with all the e's?

Glad you asked. It’s kind of our thing! We want the Evansville Region to feel like home to everyone. That’s why our community created an initiative called, e is for everyone. Our “e” campaign spotlights the common threads that bind our community, and encourages each of us—no matter what our background or interests—to connect, contribute and celebrate the Evansville Region. Newbie to the region or lifelong resident, e has something for you!
