Regional Indicators Report 2013
MEASURING OUR ECONOMIC PROGRESS
GREATER CINCINNATI
|
NORTHERN KENTUCKY
Agenda 360 and Vision 2015 have once again joined forces with policy and research experts at the University
of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky University to produce the Regional Indicators Report for the Greater
Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky region.
Objective, credible and widely accepted sources, such as the American Community Survey, were used to compare our
region to others across the country. Updates of this information, a full listing of data sources, and detailed county-by-county
breakdowns of much of the data are available at www.regional-indicators.org.
