CNBC: Kentucky's Rankings

DateWednesday, August 5, 2009 at 9:55AM

Let's dig a little deeper into the CNBC Rankings for Kentucky's business climate:

Cost of Doing Business -  2009 Rank: 8th   2008 Rank: 14th

Workforce - 2009 Rank: 19th   2008 Rank: 20th

Quality of Life - 2009 Rank: 46th   2008 Rank: 40th

Economy - 2009 Rank: 44th   2008 Rank: 45th

Transportation & Infrastructure - 2009 Rank: 4th  2008 Rank: 6th

Technology & Innovation - 2009 Rank: 32nd   2008 Rank: 38th

Education - 2009 Rank: 35th  2008 Rank: 38th

Business Friendliness: 2009 Rank: 31st  2008 Rank: 28th

Access to Capital - 2009 Rank: 33rd  2008 Rank: 22nd

Cost of Living - 2009 Rank: 9th  2008 Rank: 18th

There isn't an exhaustive explanation that we have been able to find yet to explain all the factors in these categories. We'll keep looking.

Looks like we have Cost of Living and Transportation covered. Business Friendliness and Access to Capital seem to be the most likely to be impacted in the short run by public policy.

All very interesting.

Great headline. If your cookie has a bite-sized action and your reader completes the action, I think two things happen. Their self-confidence goes up (which feels good) and their trust in you increases.
