- Economic Indicators (by County)
Economic indicators are key statistics used to analyze business conditions
and make forecasts. They give us a picture of the economy in a particular
geographic region at a current point in time. The following economic indicators
include statistics for general excise tax base revenue, labor force, tourism,
building permits, and employment by industry. Statistics are provide for the
past 5 years and for the past four quarters of the year. We hope the simple
table and graph format will provide a useful, easy-to-read and use tool for
your business plan, feasibility study, or research project.
