California

Article Abstract:

California has rebounded from its economic troubles and dramatically improved its business climate since 1991. This is seen in its low unemployment rate, new jobs creation and record corporate revenues, non-residential construction and exports. The state's economy has outpaced the rest of the US in 1999. California has become a model for utilities deregulation. It is also attracting companies because of its regional approach to economic development.
