Quarterpath benefits from its positioning within the City of Williamsburg, which is part of the Virginia Peninsula together with three other cities and five counties. As defined by the Virginia Employment Commission, a civilian labor force of more than 250,000 workers resides within this labor market area. But Quarterpath businesses can also draw from the larger Hampton Roads-area workforce of more than 800,000, an area which lies within a 45-minute commute and extends toward Norfolk and Virginia Beach.

With an entrepreneurial mindset, the mid-Atlantic trend toward research and development enterprises plus state-of-the-art healthcare facilities have contributed to a steady influx of skilled workers, new business startups and corporate relocations.

Local colleges—William & Mary, ODU, VCU, CNU and UR—as well as the Newport News Shipyard Apprentice School, are wellsprings of skilled workforce additions.
