#3 CONSTRUCTION AND THE US ECONOMY

According to a report released by Associated Builder and Contractors (ABC) last week, “the private construction industry’s value added as a percentage of the nation’s real gross domestic product (GDP) rose to 4 percent in 2016, the highest level since 2009. The report also shows annual growth in real construction spending, which rose 3.5 percent in 2016.”

A total of 37 states benefitted from the rise in construction activity and 3 of the top 5 states with the fastest growth are in the South. This included our home state of Georgia, which tied with South Carolina for second place. Click here to read the complete article.
