Hoyt Lakes
Hoyt Lakes is a planned East Range city built for the taconite era, set among lakes and forest near active mining operations with a base of mining-related, recreation, retail, and service businesses. Its taconite economy and lakeside setting anchor a resilient East Range community. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms — custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing — for the Hoyt Lakes area's mining-related, recreation, retail, and service businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania — distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
