Regional Labor-Market Transition

Job loss, new industries, training, migration, wages, public revenue, and community identity during economic change.

Why it matters

Job loss, new industries, training, migration, wages, public revenue, and community identity during economic change.

Outside-in systems

Examine federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial institutions; service capacity; infrastructure; housing; labor markets; climate risk; insurance; transportation; digital access; and fiscal systems. For this path, track employment and wage shifts, training and credentialing, and migration and fiscal effects.

Inside-out differences

Compare rural, urban, suburban, tribal, territorial, coastal, inland, border, mountain, island, and post-industrial settings alongside class, race, age, disability, migration, occupation, and local political diversity. Use those differences to test the scope of Regional Labor-Market Transition; do not treat any group as monolithic.
