Clovis is Prime Property for New Business
In the Central Valley, Clovis is one of the fastest growing communities. The
type of people attracted to our city are those who value education, want to
buy a home and have the desire to live in a vital community with old
fashioned qualities and character. As many companies and entrepreneurs have
discovered, its the perfect place to do business.
In twenty years, the population increased 119% from 32,320 in 1980 to 70,746
in 2000. That growth is expected to continue at an annual rate of 2.5%
reaching 162,000 in 2025.
Why are they coming? One answer is our top rated school system that has won
numerous awards. The district is known for its high academic standards which
is shown in the SAT scores that surpass state and national averages. Support
from parents and the community for academic and extra-curricular school
programs is shown in their success and high participation.
Clovis is an affordable place to live. With median house values at 40% of
state levels, homeowners are able to purchase a new 3-bedroom for under
$150,000 while custom homes range from $200,000 to $500,000.
Add great recreational and cultural resources to the excellent schools and
reasonably priced housing and its easy to see why Clovis offers a top
quality workforce.
