The Georgia Economy (2nd Quarter 2008 outlook)

The economic slump will be less severe in Georgia.

•Georgia’s economic slowdown will be much milder than the nation’s. Much of the relief comes from Georgia’s more rapid growth in total jobs, where the state expanded by 1.9% compared to only 0.9% nationwide. As a result, Georgia’s momentum going into 2008 is stronger, and it is expected to suffer only slight negative economic growth in the second quarter, versus both the first and second quarter for the nation.

• The mortgage meltdown will be less of a drag on Georgia than on the nation, asstate housing prices avoided unsustainable heights. Related industries such as finance and construction will face mixed impacts.

• Following this year’s slowdown, Georgia will maintain its momentum with accelerated job growth. Healthy demographic trends and low business costs will keepthe state an above-average performer.
