The factors that led to the growth of the steel industry in the Calumet region include:

- access to a complex system of railroads
- proximity to the Great Lakes

These factors facilitated transportation of raw materials and finished products, which were crucial for the steel industry. The pro-union mentality and abundant natural gas deposits, while relevant to the region's labor and energy sectors, were not primary drivers of the steel industry's growth in the Calumet region.
