Any Local Economy . . . At Your Fingertips

Today's companies need detailed and comprehensive economic and workforce intelligence—from national trends to local hotspots. And though you can get certain types of regional economic and workforce data from dozens of sources, it remains fragmented, incomplete, and difficult to access quickly. That's why EMSI has integrated the best official data sources—over 80 in all—to take the guesswork and frustration out of local economic research.

From analyzing the local labor pool to discovering new markets to evaluating the 5-year outlook for the client industries you depend on, EMSI has the critical information you need, instantly available in a fast, flexible, user-friendly web interface. We can also create customized reports for any industry, occupation, or customized geographic area in the U.S.
