Midwestern values shine through.
Located in southwestern Indiana, bordered by the Wabash River, Knox County is home to slightly more than 40,000 people who truly appreciate their county and its many communities. There are more than 15,000 household providing a well-educated workforce for a diverse economy. Vincennes, with a population of approximately 20,000, is the county seat and the largest community in the county. As the Knox County Development Corporation points out, the location advantages that brought early settlement to the area are still obvious today. U.S. Highway 41, a four-lane modern highway, links Vincennes to an excellent transportation network connected to the entire Midwestern United States.
