Site Selection Magazine released its annual data last week for manufacturing facilities investment by state. We asked them for the dollar amounts and then normalized those numbers for population and combined them with the previous four years to provide a five-year per capita investment window. It shows that California is not at all prepared to receive and grow manufacturing investment for our hundreds of thousands of unemployed middle class workers. The national average for per capita manufacturing investment was $2,073, while California only received $325 -- second lowest only to Connecticut. California even slipped from last yea's four-year ranking three places.
