With a total metro population of nearly 250,000, Green Bay epitomizes balance, offering many of the benefits of a larger city, all the while sustaining the hometown feel of a small, friendly Midwest community. Named an “All America City” by the National Civic League, Green Bay has excellent schools (students consistently lead the nation in ACT scores), a strong economy stabilized by five privately-held Fortune 500 companies, friendly, safe neighborhoods and a library system recognized as the best in the country.
