Move to Emporia. Make it Home.

Emporia Welcomes You

The Emporia Area Chamber of Commerce is inviting out-of-state job seekers to make Lyon County their next home.

The community has assembled a purpose-built relocation program valued at $7,800 to help you offset the cost of your move, connect with local employers, and become part of the community.

If you’re looking for a community that’s ready to invest in you as much as you invest in it, submit an application to get the conversation started.
