People make investments every day — and not just on Wall Street. Investment into a local community can come in the form of a person choosing to open a business or build a home in a given location. It can be when the federal government supports a local project with contracts or people of a town support the local economy by spending money.
To find out what communities across the country are seeing the greatest amount of incoming investment, New York-based financial technology company SmartAsset recently completed its third annual study on counties receiving the greatest amount of incoming investment.
The study measured each county on the following data: business establishment growth, GDP growth, new building permits and federal contracts. Take a look at the table above to see where Hamilton County ranked and how other counties stacked up against it.
