Santa Rosa County Infrastructure
The infrastructure in Santa Rosa County enables goods to reach much of the United States and parts of Canada within a single day. Florida's largest east-west connector, Interstate 10, runs right through the region. I-10 joins various east-west and north-south highways, connecting Northwest Florida to neighboring states.
Companies also benefit from the proximity of a commercial airport (Pensacola International Airport), rail service, and three deep-water ports, two of which have foreign trade zone designations.
