Some takeaways…

• We have a strong, well-educated work force and

diverse population.

• Local municipalities share attributes but have key

demographic differences.

• We are growing and will grow, but slower than our

neighbors as we take a small portion of regional growth and state population growth.

• We have a large disparity in wealth and continue to

see increases in children in poverty and food stamp recipients.

Some takeaways…

• Growth in Chapel Hill and Orange County employed

residents and growth in retail sales indicate economic improvement.

• While we have enough water for the next 50 years,

price continues to increase and a permanent emergency supply must be secured.

• Housing prices have held steady but price per

square foot and number of units sold is decreasing

Some takeaways…

• Our two school districts continue to out perform

their peers and state averages

• Tourism and visitor spending are strong and

growing .

• Orange County per capita income is the highest

and unemployment is one of the lowest in the state, but per capita retails sales continues to lag substantially.

Some takeaways…

• Health indicators put Orange in the top five

percent of NC counties

• Education in general and UNC research funding,

in particular, are key to our economy and with their large economic multiplier continues to have a big community impact.

• Our economy and community are resilient. We

were late into the recession and first out.
