2007 Economic Outlook
Morgantown Metropolitan Area

Version 9/07
By Donald Reinke, AICP, CEcD
Director, Monongalia County Development Authority
President, Morgantown Area Economic Partnership

The economic outlook for the Morgantown Metropolitan Statistical Area (including both Monongalia and Preston Counties) continues to be good for 2008. The economy of the Morgantown MSA has grown significantly in recent years and is well positioned to experience continued growth, albeit at a somewhat slower rate, for the foreseeable future. Four basic indicators of the economic health of an area include population growth, employment growth, unemployment rate, and income growth. This area, and particularly Monongalia County, ranks good to excellent on each of these four indicators of economic health, particularly relative to the rest of the state.
