Report: Seattle likely to recover from pandemic faster than most U.S. cities
Seattle is likely to have one of the quickest and strongest recoveries in the nation as the coronavirus scare winds down, according to a report by Moody’s Analytics.
The report, cited by Yahoo Finance, analyzed the top 100 U.S. metro areas' capabilities for a strong recovery using two primary factors: population density and educational attainment.
“The most dynamic recoveries may well bypass traditional powerhouses and take place instead in areas that (weren’t) poised to lead the way in 2020 before everything changed,” wrote Adam Kamins, senior regional economist at Moody’s Analytics, according to Yahoo Finance.
The analysis found that the cities best poised to recover quickly included San Jose, Calif.; Durham, N.C.; Austin, Texas; Seattle; and Minneapolis.
