Georgia Named Most Competitive
Gov. Nathan Deal announced today that Georgia was named the No.1 most competitive state in the nation by Site Selection magazine. The magazine releases its Top 10 Competitive States every year in May. The Top 10 Competitive States ranking is based on an index of 10 criteria, most of which are tied to new projects and expansions tracked by Site Selection's New Plant Database.
Site Selection's Top 10 Competitive States has given Georgia 426 points - 12 more than the 414 that won last year's first place. Last year, Georgia ranked as the nation's third most competitive state and has remained in the top 10 most competitive states since 2010.
