Welcome

On behalf Clearwater County, both staff and residents, we would like to extend our warmest invitations and greetings.

Clearwater County is an area that is rich in history, beauty and resources. For many years we have seen the community grow and prosper as businesses realize the great potential for growth here. We are continually striving to achieve a balance in development and preservation, and judging from our growth rates in both industry and tourism, we feel that we are succeeding.

Our municipality has a strong economic base, due to a wide diversity in industry and the attitudes of our residents. Our economically diverse community is strengthened by several key industries including oil & gas, agriculture, forestry and tourism. These industries are all major players in our community's sound economic base, and they will continue to be key industries as our community continues to grow and diversify.

Once again, we welcome you to visit Clearwater County. Whether you are a business looking for growth and development opportunities, or just planning on enjoying our fantastic scenery and recreation opportunities, we know that you will be impressed with what we have to offer.

Sincerely,

Dwight Oliver,
