...AND RICHER...:
Personal incomes grow in NH (MICHAEL COUSINEAU, 2/04/19, New Hampshire Union Leader)
A new report said New Hampshire enjoyed the seventh-highest per-capita personal income among the states in 2017 at $59,668, compared to the national average of $51,640.The state saw a 13 percent gain between 2007 to 2017 after adjusting for inflation and during a time in which it recovered from the Great Recession, according to the report."I think most importantly it speaks to the dynamic nature and vibrancy of New Hampshire's economy," economist Brian Gottlob of Dover said Monday. "The state continues to develop and attract new and innovative companies and industries. That is really the key."Technologies change, business and even entire industries can come and go and any state that consistently is able to develop and/or attract new and innovative companies and industries is going to have an economy that continually adapts and reinvents itself even after recessions," Gottlob said.
