- 2 out of every 5 workers in Houston County, Minnesota work in Wisconsin, Iowa, or outside the local region
- Approximately $2.6 billion of the region's economic requirements are being met by businesses located outside the region
- The analysis identifies specific industries and their satisfaction rates within the region versus outside, to help find potential gaps that could be filled through business attraction, retention, or startup efforts
