https://wallethub.com/edu/states-with-the-best-economies/21697Top 5 in "Economic Health" are red states. But my guess is all we'll hear about from those states for this election is how bad the economy is. Economic Health is defined as:Unemployment Rate: Double Weight (~4.30 Points) Underemployment Rate: Half Weight (~1.08 Points) Change in Nonfarm Payrolls (2021 vs. 2020): Full Weight (~2.15 Points)Change in Total Civilian Labor Force (2021 vs. 2020): Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Increase in Ratio of Full-Time Jobs to Part-Time Jobs (2020 vs. 2019): Half Weight (~1.08 Points) Median Annual Household Income Adjusted for Cost of Living: Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Growth in State Personal Income (2021 vs. 2020): Full Weight (~2.15 Points)Government Surplus/Deficit per Capita: Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Unfunded Public Pension Plans per Capita: Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Share of Uninsured Population: Half Weight (~1.08 Points) Share of Population in Poverty: Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Foreclosure Rate: Full Weight (~2.15 Points)Growth in Number of Businesses (2020 vs. 2019): Full Weight (~2.15 Points)Fiscal Health: Full Weight (~2.15 Points) Building-Permit Activity: Full Weight (~2.15 Points)Average Educational Attainment of Recent Immigrants: Half Weight (~1.08 Points) Average Educational Attainment of Recent Migrants from Other U.S. States: Half Weight (~1.08 Points)
I'm thinking this projects down somewhat to "service" vs "natural resource" economy. Timber and Oil and ??? have been booming during and after Covid and amidst WWIII while tourist/service economies must still be suffering the shutdowns?
