Fort Wayne is Indiana’s second-largest city, set where three rivers meet in the northeast corner of the state. Manufacturing has long been the backbone of its economy, from the General Motors truck plant just southwest of the city to defense electronics firms, steel processors and medical device makers. Healthcare, insurance and logistics are also important, and Parkview Health and Lutheran Health Network make the city a regional medical center. A wave of downtown investment, including Promenade Park along the riverfront, has given Fort Wayne new energy.

Fort Wayne International Airport serves the city with limited airline routes, and the drives to Indianapolis, Chicago, Detroit or Columbus all take two hours or more. Flying private allows executives and suppliers to visit plants across northeast Indiana and northwest Ohio in a single day. Smith Field, on the city’s north side, is another option for smaller aircraft. Leisure visitors enjoy a strong zoo, an indoor botanical conservatory, minor league baseball downtown and the Allen County Public Library, home to one of the largest genealogy collections in the country.
