Colorado Springs Rank High On List Of Best Performing Cities In The U.S.

From KKTV.com:

"On Monday, the Milken Institute released its “Best-Performing Cities 2022: Charting Economic Resilience and Opportunity” report. The report ranked Colorado Springs no. 9 in the U.S. for large cities.
The core components of the index used in the report are job creation, wage growth, and output growth, especially in high-tech sectors. The report also included housing affordability as a factor; however, Colorado Springs ranked 150th in that category.
“Colorado Springs reported only a 0.1 percent economic decrease in 2020, faring significantly better than the US metro area average of -3.5 percent. Because of its economic specialization in military and defense, Colorado Springs deemed most businesses ‘essential,’ thereby insulating them from some of the effects of a mandated lockdown,” part of the report reads.
Provo-Orem, Utah ranked no. 1 in the report while Denver ranked no. 14."
