Why are some metropolitan areas better off than others? Why are the Seattle, San Francisco and Boston metropolitan areas better off than almost every such area in the country despite high housing costs, traffic congestion and a generally high cost of living? Why are Memphis, Buffalo, and New Orleans worse off than most of the metro areas in the US? A new study from the Beacon Hill Institute at Suffolk University in Boston suggests that the answer can be ound by looking at the "competitiveness" of metro areas. BHI authors Jonathan Haughton and Corina Murg combined more than three dozen variables measuring human resources, technology, openness to commerce, crime prevention, government and fiscal policy, infrastructure and environmental policy to develop a "competitiveness index" for each of the country's 50 largest metro areas. They found that Seattle ranks 1st, behind only San Francisco 2nd and Boston 3rd. BHI's Metro Area and State Competitiveness Report 2002 is an extensive and accessible examination of the principal factors that make one metro area more effective than another at attracting workers and business capital. Among the study's key findings are: ? There is no geographic pattern to success in achieving competitiveness: The top ten metro areas are evenly distributed around the country. ? There is a geographic pattern to failure: Eight of the bottom ten metro areas are located east of the Mississippi. ? Florida, Tennessee, California and New York are each home to two of the bottom 10 metro areas. ? A high (or low) ranking for a metro area does not imply a high (or low) ranking for the state in which that area is principally located: Raleigh ranks 7th as a metro area, while North Carolina ranks 35th as a state; Austin ranks 6th, while Texas ranks 28th. On the other hand, Boston ranks 3rd, while Massachusetts ranks 2nd.
