Good News: 2000 County-County
Commuting Pattern Released Today

This is what many of us have been waiting for. The 2000 Census data on county-to-county commuting patterns is now available. As Steve Kelley, Director of the Ohio Department of Development's Office of Strategic Research says: "It's here and now we have fresh data to work with. Future data formatting and summaries will greatly enhance data usability. That will happen shortly."

Consider using this data in your workforce and economic development plans and strategies. We have been relying on the much-outdated 1990 data, which creates a very distorted picture of local and regional labor markets today.
