Labor Market

Employment in Belknap County is expected to increase by more than 5,500 from 2002 to 2012. This growth of 19.7 percent surpasses the statewide employment growth expectations by more than two percentage points and places Belknap County in second place for the fastest projected employment growth.

In addition, it is projected that the replacements needs due to retirement, promotion, or leaving the labor market should exceed the numbers of jobs created by employment growth during this same ten-year cycle.

A fluid labor market is essential for a vibrant economy. The following links are provided as a resource for the labor market.
