| Measure | Value | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| New housing units permitted | 7,202 | Last full year, county-wide. 100 per 10,000 residents. Permits lead construction hiring by months, so this is the earliest honest signal of work arriving (Census Building Permits Survey). |
| Construction employment | 22,666 | Everyone working in construction in this county, all trades and office staff. Average pay $1,600 per week. BLS QCEW. |
| Median year homes were built | 2001 | Older stock means more repair, replacement and retrofit work, which is steadier than new build and does not stop in a downturn (Census ACS). |
| Net migration | +1,350 | People who moved in minus people who moved out, from IRS address changes. Arrivals need housing, wiring, plumbing and heat. |
5.0 licensed HVAC technicians per 10,000 residents; 28 licensed holders per 100 estimated workers in the trade; 0.2 apprentices per 10,000 residents. A thin pipeline against an ageing licensed base is how a shortage forms years before it shows up in wages.
