NCGrowth and ncIMPACT have written a new report is out that evaluates North Carolina’s County Distress Rankings, known as tiers, established in 1987 to promote economic development in less prosperous areas. The report provides background and context, stakeholder insight into the system’s effectiveness, and comparison with alternative models in South Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, and Texas.
