Walworth County, WI

Known for the stunning Geneva Lake Shore Path, a scenic 21-mile walking trail that winds past historic mansions, quiet lakeside neighborhoods, and breathtaking water views, Walworth County has been the Midwest's premier vacation destination for over a century.

Walworth County's tourism industry is thriving, with direct visitor spending reaching $762.7 million in 2024 - a 4.7% increase from 2023's $728.3 million - making it the sixth-largest tourism economy among Wisconsin's 72 counties. The county is also experiencing transformative business investment, with Kikkoman Foods committing $800 million to expand its longtime soy sauce-making facility in Walworth and build a new manufacturing facility, representing one of Wisconsin's largest single capital investments in recent history. Positioned strategically in the Chicago-Milwaukee corridor with easy access to Madison, Walworth County offers businesses a growing population of over 106,000 residents and a destination economy that attracts millions of visitors annually.
