Industry Diversity Snapshot

In 2023, we ranked 72nd for industry diversity while ranking 192nd in population out of 387 metro areas across the country.

Now in 2025, our metro ranks 11th out of 387 metros for industry diversity.

This means that employment is distributed more evenly between the 11 industry clusters compared to the typical Metro. A region with high diversity can signal economic stability and more easily withstand economic pressures, while a region with low diversity can signal economic instability.
