Hi,

(06-01-2010, 08:13 PM)Jester Wrote: According to the US census, only about 15% of employed persons in Okanogan County are in agriculture, forestry, mining, fishing and hunting, combined.

While you are right, a closer look at those numbers reveals something interesting. There are no other base level occupations. All the other occupations are support and service. With 500 people in finance, etc., I doubt it is a commercial center. So, it looks to be about seven to one in support. Which means that, for each job lost in the base economy, eight jobs are lost in total.
