Welcome
Welcome to the City of Lawrenceburg's website. We invite everyone to learn about the City of Lawrenceburg through this media. And we extend an invitation to all those viewers that have not visited our fair city to visit us soon.
Lawrenceburg's population is approximately 14,000. Our city is mixed with small-town friendliness and big city bustle. Lawrenceburg is a very neighborly community where citizens and officials work together for continuous growth and prosperity.
Economy
We have a strong industrially based economy with abundant service and commercial businesses. Our local Main Street Organization (National Organization) has worked very hard to keep our downtown vibrant and thriving. Our many Civic Organizations contribute the seasoning for the successful blend of business and industry in the City of Lawrenceburg.
