In the immediate north of the Metropolitan Frankfurt begins the Wetteraukreis, which is one of the oldest cultural landscapes in Europe. Via the central motorway axes of the A 5 (Frankfurt-Kassel) and the A 45 (Würzburg-Dortmund), which cross the Wetterau, the metropolis of Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main Airport can be reached directly and quickly as a hub of international air traffic. In particular, companies from the logistics and transport industry are Hessen's densest rail network in the Wetterau available. For new settlements and expansions, Wetterau offers short-term availability of commercial space in attractive locations with low real estate prices and business taxes. The graduates of the Technical University of Mittelhessen in Friedberg and the Justus Liebig University in Gießen have a high potential of specialists with ties to the region.
