Development Costs

The Town of Glenvile is committed to assisting developers, business owners, residents and land owners with any questions. To that end a number of resources have been assembled to help plan your financing, location siting, development planning and growth. Elsewhere on the Economic Development and Planning website you can find commercial and residential Sites, town Statistics (gathered from https://data.census.gov/cedsci/) and local Resources. Mapped data can also be obtained from https://geofred.stlouisfed.org/. 

Costs

The cost of living in Glenville is .8% higher than the national average according to the nonprofit Money Fit (https://moneyfit.org/cost-of-living-calculator). 

Labor costs can be calculated by location and vocation at the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes131051.htm).
