ABC News Airs “Recession-Proof” Job Markets

PolicyMap on ABC News Tonight!

Watch your local ABC News tonight for an interview with Jeremy Nowak, the CEO and President of The Reinvestment Fund regarding the geography of the recession. A few months ago, BusinessWeek.com used PolicyMap data to talk about cities that might best survive this recession and ABCNews wanted to explore the topic further.  They asked him questions about where the recession is hitting hardest or where the best opportunities might exist.

BusinessWeek used PolicyMap data to look at cities across the country that had high concentrations of jobs in “safe” industries, such as: healthcare, education, law, energy and the government and came up with the list of “top 20” recession proof cities below.

Jeremy Nowak’s interview is being distributed by ABC News tonight. The original BusinessWeek.com articles can be found in our News section (/?p=1586) or at businessweek.com.
