Yesterday, the Brookings Institution’s Metropolitan Policy Program released a new report entitled, The State of Metropolitan America. The report tracks the social and demographic trends of nation’s metropolitan areas that have taken place during the first decade of the new millennium using data collected from the Census Bureau and the American Community Survey.
Over the last several years, Brookings’ Metropolitan Policy Program has been a close partner of Greater Ohio and a co-authored our Restoring Prosperity report; Brookings’ latest effort provides valuable data that supplements the figures found in Restoring Prosperity and is a useful resource for anyone interesting in learning more about the metropolitan areas leading Ohio and the nation into the next economy.
