Driving Economic Progress Together
In an increasingly global marketplace, New Haven has many distinct advantages. From its diverse, highly productive workforce, to its plentiful artistic, educational, and cultural opportunities, to its growing tech, health care, and life sciences industries, our City is well positioned to compete successfully.
The consistently low residential vacancy rate (around 5.6% in 2019) and thousands of new units in the development pipeline are testaments to New Haven’s unbeatable location and the high demand for New Haven living.
The mission of the Department of Economic Development is to build on these advantages, by facilitating commercial development, attracting quality businesses and investment, and improving employment opportunity, to create a model, modern, world-class city in which everyone who wants a good-paying, career-oriented job can find one
Our goal is to create a dynamic economic environment by pursuing six key objectives. Please click on links below to view how we achieve these objectives:
