What city do you think is number one this year? Well, just go to http://www.milkeninstitute.org or http://www.forbes.com/bestplaces to find out. This annual ranking of the top 200 metropolitan areas in the United States (with a separate ranking for 94 small metros) looks at which metros are the most dynamic based on jobs and earnings growth, and high-technology growth and output. All of the numbers were provided by the Institute's Regional and Demographic Studies group as part of its ongoing research into how high-tech impacts regional economies. If you have any questions about the Forbes-Milken Institute ranking, or if you wish more information about the Institute or the high-tech work of the Regional Studies group, please contact us at (310) 998-2600. We hope this is of interest to you.
