From a moderate climate to a rich history and diverse recreational activities, North Carolina is an excellent place to live. It’s also a great place to do business. Whether drawn by the mild winters, low cost of living, or the 300-plus miles of coastline, employees of all sorts provide a talented workforce to companies that choose to make this eastern state their home. Furthermore, low construction costs help keep new businesses developing.

In 2014, Forbes ranked North Carolina as the #3 Best State for Businesss. The article credits recent trends in migration and a sharp drop in the unemployment rate. Writer Kurt Badenhausen states: “North Carolina has the smallest union workforce in the U.S. in percentage terms. The resulting benefit is labor costs that are 16% below the national average-third lowest in the country. North Carolina has ranked in the top five overall each year of our Best States study.”
