Clearlake thrives on its tourism and recreational industries, and the
local government continues to promote economic growth in a variety of
markets.
Behind the casual atmosphere and easy-going lifestyle of
Clearlake (you can leave your suit

and tie at home!) is a dynamic partnership of government and private
industry committed to doing whatever it takes to "grow" our
community.
The outlying areas are
largely agricultural. Lake County's Bartlett pears, walnuts and
wines enjoy wide recognition. Wild rice and kiwifruit are also
significant products. Lake County's wineries have earned more awards
per acre than any other area in the world. Lake County hosts the
largest geothermal industry in the country. Employment in
agriculture is forecasted to remain stable, and a gradual trend to
replace tree crops with higher profit grapes is predicted to further
stimulate the local economy. Affordable land, low construction
costs, and a growth-centered outlook provide unparalleled
opportunity for a variety of business ventures.
