I wanted to share some data with you that illustrates the strength of Montgomery County’s business community: total employment in the County grew by nearly 25,000 jobs – from 631,000 jobs in 2010 to 655,800 jobs in 2012! This is impressive given the economic climate and shows the resiliency and fortitude of our local businesses – large and small.
The top job gaining sector was professional, scientific and technical services, which added almost 5,300 jobs beteen 2010 and 2012. The other top growing sectors were government, retail trade and health care and social assistance, each adding over 3,000 jobs during the three year period.
