Abstract:

Catawba County has an ideal balance between industry and agriculture. Major towns in the county are Hickory, Newton, Conover, Maiden, and Catawba. Each of the towns is industrial in nature, and each is surrounded by rich farming regions. Agriculturally, the county has grown to be one of diversified crops and has become a pioneer in the dairy industry, especially in the Jersey division.
