Following is an excerpt from Chief Executive Magazine:
As the nation’s unemployment figures continue to reach new heights, Chief Executive magazine’s 2009 “Best & Worst States” survey took CEOs’ pulse on what the best and worst places for jobs and business growth are. For the fourth year in a row, CEOs rated Texas as the #1 state to do business and California as the worst.
Chief Executive‘s fifth annual survey asked 543 CEOs to evaluate their states on a broad range of issues, including proximity to resources, regulation, tax policies, education, quality of living and infrastructure. Providing additional insight to the evaluations, CEOs were also asked to grade each state based on the following criteria: 1) Taxation & Regulation, 2) Workforce Quality, and 3) Living Environment.
As states put on an intense competition to attract business and investment in this tough economic environment, Chief Executive magazine’s Best & Worst States survey experienced a flurry of activity in the top ranks with the entry of three new states into the top five: Florida, Georgia and Tennessee.
