City of Charleston
About
The Mayor’s Office of Economic and Community Development (MOECD) works collaboratively with other local, state and federal agencies and entities to encourage and support business and economic growth in the city. Starting as a frontier town at the confluence of the Elk and Kanawha rivers and home to Daniel Boone, Charleston has grown throughout its history to become an important location for chemicals, coal, natural gas, banking and manufacturing. Today Charleston is a vibrant city that is diversifying into the advanced manufacturing and technology sectors, expanding its health care institutions and attracting more and more tourists and recreation visitors. It also has a long history as an entrepreneurial center for startups and family owned businesses. Charleston offers many of the benefits of a big city but maintains the convenience and community feel of a small city. While the city is a meeting spot for five highways, residents enjoy relatively low traffic congestion and short commute times. It also is home to Yeager regional airport, two rail lines and a sophisticated inland waterway system.
