Business Startups and Expansions, 2000

Comparing business startups and expansions to business dissolutions and contractions can be a good indicator of the health of business and job growth in a state. The Minnesota Department of Trade and Economic Development tracks the number of businesses starting up and shutting down each year, to measure the business activity in the state. In 2000, with the exception of Hennepin County, business startups and expansions appear fairly quiet. Farther north and west, however, counties appear to be experiencing higher rates of business startups and expansions.
