Nation's Seventh Best Economy Makes Little Rock Hot Relocation Market
The Brookings Institution ranks Little Rock the seventh strongest economy in America, with the second lowest increase in unemployment and the seventh best housing market.
Manpower's Employment Outlook Survey projects the region among the nation's strongest in hiring. Forbes.com ranks Little Rock the 22nd best place in America for business and careers, while the region's income growth is the nation's seventh best.
Southern Business and Development magazine put Metro Little Rock atop its regions thriving in a tough economy. Editor Michael Randle wrote that there is “no doubt in our minds which southern market we would place at the top of the list...If Little Rock were a stock, I'd buy shares in it.”
As America, and indeed the world, face the greatest economic challenges in generations, the strength, diversity and resilience of Central Arkansas's economy offer the ideal relocation opportunity.
