Chicago Sun Times (March 3)
“The Chicago area was named the top U.S. metro for corporate relocations and site selection for the 13th year in a row by Site Selection Magazine…. World Business Chicago, the city’s nonprofit economic development agency, last year counted 223 corporate expansions, projects and new entrants in the Chicago area. The 40% year-over-year increase in activity represents $1.7 billion in annual earnings and the creation of an estimated 19,600 jobs.”
