According to Lightcast, Florida leads the other states when it comes to attracting and developing skilled working personnel. Additionally, Florida also led when it came to education attainments, jobs, competitive effect, etc. Governor Ron DeSantis credits his administration’s policies, including having an open economy and emphasis on developing working personnel, for this status.<\/p>\n

From Just the News:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBy keeping Florida free and open, we have created a positive economic environment and invested in our state\u2019s workforce and communities,\u201d he said, while also leading the U.S. \u201cin net migration and talent attraction.\u201d He said while \u201cother states continue to struggle at the hands of poor leadership, people and businesses are flocking to Florida.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lightcast says it created the report to help businesses find employees \u201cwith the talent and skills they need\u201d and \u201cto help communities understand how they were doing at attracting and developing talent to help meet this need.\u201d<\/p>\n

The report measures seven growth areas over the most recent five-year period analyzed, including net migration of counties adding new residents, education attainment, job creation, skilled job creation, competitive effect, and average annual job openings. This year, state rankings were added to the report. Historically, the ranking has evaluated three types of communities: Large Counties (100,000+ population), Small Counties (5,000\u201399,999 population), and Micro Counties (less than 5,000 population).<\/p>\n

The rankings \u201calso capture the first wave of pandemic migration, with IRS migration data from 2016\u20132020,\u201d the report states.<\/p>\n

According to the report, Florida ranked first among states with the 15 largest counties in the top 50 in talent attraction. Five Florida counties were in the top 20: Hillsborough County (#8), Polk (#10), Lee (#12), St Johns (#18), and Pasco (#20).<\/p>\n

Florida also led all states in net migration, adding more than 388,000 residents between 2016-2020 \u2013 nearly double the net migration gains of Texas, which ranked second in the report.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
