Charleston SC Real Estate Blog:  Charleston County is 21st Best county in the US For Job Growth

CNN recently released an article on the top 25 Counties in the United States for job growth from 2000 to 2010.  Charleston County is ranked 21st in the Country for job growth during this time. 

The report noted the exceptional growth of the aerospace industry and the Boeing 787 Facility along with the growth at the ports in Charleston and Georgetown. 

Here is the article in its entirety:

Job growth (2000-2010): 30.5%

The Dreamliner has landed in Charleston County.Boeing will assemble its 787 passenger jet at a $750,000 million plant there. Although the ribbon cutting ceremony was only in June, the facility has already brought 1,000 jobs, with the promise of 2,800 more to come. Aerospace is one of the county's fastest-growing industries with more than a dozen companies in the area.

Meanwhile, the proximity of the Medical University of South Carolina and its research facilities is a major draw for Charleston County's biosciences sector. More than 30 companies have set up shop. Other target industries include tech, advanced security and auto parts makers and suppliers.

Business is also booming at one of the nation's busiest cargo ports. Container shipping at the ports of Charleston and Georgetown is up 10% in the current fiscal year, while non-container cargo has jumped 40%.

As always, your thoughts, questions, or comments are greatly appreciated.
