Although the housing industry is in a slump and manufacturers are eliminating jobs, economic downturn has been avoided by strong performance in other markets, according to an analysis from Grubb & Ellis.
Professional and business services, educational and health services, and leisure and hospitality have contained the fallout from the housing market, says Grubb & Ellis, and have helped maintain a relatively healthy labor market.
