    The story so far

    Local job base moved from 468 in 2010 to 864 by 2023, with the pace of change shifting noticeably around 2014 (+11.8%/year before, +3.3%/year after). That trend is still underway as of the most recent data. Family-household share has risen 9 percentage points since 2009 (70% to 79% by 2024) — measured across non-overlapping ACS survey windows to avoid over-reading a single year's release.
