Located in South Central Wisconsin along the scenic Ice Age Trail, Rock County (the Janesville-Beloit MSA) provides a unique environment where urban and rural interests not only coexist, but thrive together. Our communities are anchored by the Rock River and positioned on the Stateline where Interstates 39/90 and 43 intersect [NOTE: Click here for construction updates]. Many of the foundations that contributed toward the area’s DNA remain vibrant today.

With deep connections between agriculture and industry, Rock County has a solid reputation for being an area where individuals can grow companies and families alike. While legacy “forged on the Rock” connections can be found throughout the county, new faces and fresh ideas are welcomed and continue to shape the area’s economic, environmental, and social landscapes.

Excellent educational and nationally recognized healthcare institutions provide variety and choice without the compromise of quality. A variety of local and regional events and activities keeps residents and visitors entertained year-round. These include, but are not limited to: the performing arts, collegiate and professional athletics, cultural or seasonal festivals, open space and recreation, and places of historical significance.

With access to five commercial airports (MDW, MKE, MSN, ORD and RFD), all within a  2.5 hour drive or less, you can be assured that you'll reach that important domestic or international destination. Meanwhile, the Southern WI Regional Airport offers air cargo, charter and corporate aviation services.
