Workforce VS Housing Ratios
source data: CA EDD and Dept of Finance
Analysis tries to compare a region's workforce (Labor Force in EDD data) to the number of housing units in a region, to compare available housing ratios and trends and determine if progress is being made. Note in 2000, San Jose was importing about 25% of the workforce needed for the jobs available.
