Abstract

The pace and patterns of growth in Iowa's economy have produced distinct groups of winners and losers during the past decade. Drastic differences are evident in both the geographic location and industrial mix of employment growth. As we begin a new decade, it is useful to review recent changes in the Iowa economy, identify its strengths, and assess opportunities for future growth. This report describes the nature of nonfarm employment and earnings growth from 1987 to 1997 and discusses possible implications for Iowa's future economy. The report covers statewide changes in total nonfarm employment and employment by major industrial division. In addition, the report describes the kinds of employment growth experienced by Iowa's metropolitan, urban, and rural counties. This report was prepared for use by state and local decision-makers, community planners, economic development groups, and other organizations and individuals with an interest in Iowa's changing economy.
