2Covered Employment & Wages (CEW) also known as ES202 data are the product of a federal-state cooperative program, the Quarterly Census of Employmentand Wages (QCEW) program, also known as the ES-202 program. The data are derived from summaries of employment and total pay of workers covered by stateand federal unemployment insurance (UI) legislation and provided by State Workforce Agencies (SWAs). The summaries are a result of the administration of state
unemployment insurance programs that require most employers to pay quarterly taxes based on the employment and wages of workers covered by UI.(www.bls.gov).
3Average wages in 2007 dollars term calculated using CPI inflation calculator available at Bureau of Labor Statistics website http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl.
The CPI inflation calculator uses the average Consumer Price Index for a given calendar year. This data represents changes in prices of all goods and services
purchased for consumption by urban households. This index value has been calculated every year since 1913. For the current year, the latest monthly index value
is used (www.bls.gov).

Key Industries
Irrespective of the decline in total industry in recent years, Cloud County is home to some very well performing industries.These industries may be a part of existing or emerging clusters. For identifying key industries and clusters, three criteriawere used:
1. Location Quotient Location quotients (LQ) for industries at 6-digit NAICS level were calculated with US industryemployment as base. The cutoff for LQ was taken as 1.25 (based on previous studies, especially Cortright 2003).
2. Average Wages Average wages at 6-digit NAICS codes were compared to US average wages. If any industryhas average wages 10% above the US average, it is considered to be a good performing industry.
3. Growth Rate Growth rates for the employment were calculated over three year time period from 2003 to 20064,growth rate above 5% was considered to be an indicator of good industry performance.
Any industry that satisfies one of these three conditions is either a good performing industry or an industry with goodpotential for growth. There may or may not be a cluster existing in a region for every good performing industry, but ifthere are good performing industries, a cluster may emerge in the near future. (For further details of methodology,please see Appendix B.)
Growth Rates
Most of the industries with high growth rates are local instead of traded5 industries in Cloud County. The highest growthrate is for the Outpatient Mental Health Centers (160.86%) and Wholesale Trade Agents and Brokers (146.62%). TheOffices of Real Estate Agents also has a high growth rate of 141%.
4There were two reasons for selecting 2003 base year. 1) The numbers were more likely to be free from 9/11 impacts as compared to 2001 or 2002 numbers. 2)
NAICS definitions changed in 2002, so it was very difficult to bridge between 2002 & 1997 codes for some industries.
5Traded industries are defined as the ones exporting their goods and/or services outside their region. Local industries are the ones with all local (within the region)
dealings (Porter 2003).

Wages above National Averages
The countys Vocational Rehabilitation Services (NAICS) have average wages around 137% higher than the nationalaverages.

Shift Share Analysis
Shift share analysis breaks down changes in employment (growth or decline) over a period of time into three components:National growth share, Industry mix share and local share. This analysis is used to account for the competitiveness of aregions industries and to analyze the local economic base7.
National growth shareThis is the share of growth (decline) in local employment that can be attributed to growth (decline) in employmentat the national level.
National Growth Share = Employment in base year * National employment growth rate
Industry mix shareThis is the growth (decline) in employment in the region that can be attributed to the growth (decline) in thatparticular industry at the national level.
Industry Mix Share = Employment in base year *(Industrys National Growth rate National employmentgrowth rate)
Local shareThis is the share of growth (decline) in employment in a region that can be attributed to the competitiveness of aregion.
Local Share = Employment in base year *(Regions industry growth rate National Industry growth rate)
The industry with the highest local share in growth is the Outpatient Mental Health Centers. The employment in the sectorincreased by 67 and all of the 67 jobs were due to local growth (Table 14). The second highest growth in employment wasin the Limited Service Restaurants. In this industry there was a net growth of 44 jobs, of which 43 were attributable to local
growth in the region.

Clusters in Cloud County
Traded Clusters
The wages, growth rate & LQ numbers do not point to the existence of any one cluster in Cloud County. Instead, theyindicate a number of clusters that may exist or emerge in the county. The Arts, Entertainment, Recreation and Visitorcluster has a high growth rate of about 91%, but has wages lower than nation and a LQ value of 1.27. Similarly, the Glassand Ceramics cluster has a high LQ of 12.08, a growth rate of 13.27% but wages lower than the nation. The AdvancedMaterials sector seems to be an emerging cluster with a growth rate of 52.40% and LQ of 1.80, though the wages areconsiderably lower than the national average wages (about 50% less). Even though these clusters are low wage paying,
investments into these sectors should still be considered to make them more competitive.
