An interesting story here from Business Insider, which looks ahead to the development of new technology centers. It includes Henderson County in a list of 20 cities and counties in the U.S. that could be the next hotbed of innovation:
We have dug deep into the U.S. Census data and discovered 20 micropolitan areas that meet certain demographic requirements for a budding technology economy. These factors include a high level of broadband accessibility, a sizable workforce (in relative terms), a vibrant local economy, and the presence of a small college or university.
Interestingly, all of these locations have unemployment rates as much as five points below the national average, and the top five have a broadband availability rate of 100%.
