The county praises a population of half a million residents, an unemployment rate of 2.73% and a net medium income of 1,047 EUR.
Local authorities (City Hall & County Council) have a significant budget of almost 1 billion EUR for investments in new education, medical, sport, green and transport infrastructure. One of the most important new investments announced during the last year is the Rheinmetall factory in Victoria, Europe’s largest gunpowder factory. Forecasted for delivery in 2027, this new investment will contribute to Romania’s defence independence.
