Abstract

Nonmetropolitan counties are divided into four economic performance groups, based on the strength of earnings growth over the 1979-88 period and on the stability of that growth. This report describes the typical county in each of the four performance groups, and compares them. Each group is described along a variety of dimensions, including demographic, locational, regional, educational, labor market, economic base, business, government revenue and expenditure, infrastructure, and amenity characteristics.
