The
region that is covered by the Pee Dee Region Workforce Development
Board is Mongomery, Moore and Richmond Counties in North Carolina.
The three counties are supported by Interstates 73 and (future)
74, and US Routes 1 and 74, which provides one day trucking access
to 60% of the U.S. Population. The region is also supported by two
international airports in about an hour's drive.
The region is home to a diverse economy of manufacturing, service,
retail, transportation, tourism, healthcare, recreation and education.
The three counties enjoy a rich history dating back to pre-revolutionary
war times, yet are on the cutting edge in many industries and are
marked by lush wooded countrysides. Vistors are drawn to such attractions
as the world-class golf in the Pinehurst/Southern Pines area, the
Uwharrie National Forest, the National Railroad Hall of Fame, pottery
centers, motorsports, historical sites and outdoor activities.
