Charleston At Top of List for Job Growth

The Milken Institute/Greenstreet Real Estate Partners Best Performing Cities Index ranks U.S. metropolitan areas by how well they are creating and sustaining jobs and economic growth. The components include job, wage and salary and technology growth. The full report can be downloaded here.

The Best Performing Cities ranking depicts those U.S. metropolitan areas that are recording the top economic performance.

Charleston, SC, was ranked # 10 for 2008 !! This is up from last year when we were ranked # 12, this just shows the diversity and strength of our economy here. Pass the word, more good news that I am sure that the local media will overlook. I think this is important to pass along to people that are thinking of moving here and maybe a little anxious about moving to a smaller southern town like Charleston, SC.
