Fabricated Metal
Some potential points to spur discussion:
- Fabricated metal product manufacturing is positively association with greater access to the internet, perhaps due to greater productivity, lower costs, or better market access.
- Fabricated metal manufacturing is more prevalent in counties with more high school educated residents.
- Manufacturing industries seem to benefit from agglomeration, that is, locating in areas with higher shares of employment in manufacturing.
