Georgia, Florida Among Top 10 in Ranking of Economic Momentum
Monday, April 13th, 2015
A new report ranks Georgia and Florida among the best performing states in terms of economic momentum, outpacing both the rest of the country and other states in the South.
The Index of State Economic Momentum released Thursday is compiled by Federal Funds Information for States, a Washington-based clearinghouse for policymakers.
“Regional trends are apparent. States atop the list are located almost exclusively in the West and South, while those at the bottom are located in the Midwest, South and Northeast,” the authors noted. “No northeastern state exceeded the national average economic performance.”
