Dothan Area UpdatePosted by mattparker in Economic Update, Dothan |
I want to thank Debbie for inviting me to blog on the area economy and share some good news to all the Wiregrasslive community. Debbie, Quilla, and crew do an amazing job in providing a format to engage and inform with this forum.
The good news is that among the 309 urban areas that have participated in the first quarter 2009 ACCRA Cost of Living Index, the after-tax cost for a professional/managerial standard of living ranged from more than twice the national average in New York (Manhattan) NY to just over 14.9 percent below the national average in Dothan, Alabama. The ACCRA Cost of Living Index is published quarterly by C2ER - The Council for Community and Economic Research.
