One of the top news articles in the Tri-Cities, Washington this year was in May when the Tri-Cities grabbed the attention of the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS). The BLS ranked the Tri Cities 5th in the nation for having a high job growth of about 4.3% annually. This increase is said to be the result of the jobs brought in by the Agricultural Industry, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the Hanford Cleanup which substantially helps the job market. Over the past 10 years non-farming jobs in the Tri Cities such as PNNL and the Hanford Cleanup have increased from 82,000 in 1997 to 102,000 in 2007.
Tri Cities Washington remains a destinations location for real estate investors, as well as folks looking for a great place to live.
