Time of year where I begin to yearn for a trip back to Charleston, SC. As you may know from previous posts or other sources, I was fortunate to dabble in a specialized economic development, revitalization and knowledge-based workforce development effort while living and work there some years ago. Actually, the effort, known as the Charleston Digital Corridor (CDC), got started in 2001 and in eight relatively short years, goals continue to be surpassed in high tech job and wage growth for Charleston’s economy. Now, their new website allows them to boast a little. http://charlestondigitalcorridor.com/relocation/quick-facts.php
Take note to the wage levels in the CDC sectors compared to those in the region and nation. So much for Charleston being a quaint little southern town with no high tech appeal. Even Google has selected Charleston as a regional location, after an exhaustive search. However, the graph that appeals most to me right now is the average temp stats.
