CRI

FORT WAYNE AREA
ECONOMIC RELATED DATA

CRI presents five areas of economic activity for the Fort Wayne Area (note: in general, the Fort Wayne MSA is the general area of interest, but not all information is based on this 3-county area. Some, such as intial unemployment claims, are from the area since data is collected from the offices in Fort Wayne and Auburn.)

Additionally, CRI maintains other web sites which contain data that relate to ALLEN COUNTY, INDIANA. Health, education, crime data and other safety information are contained on the United Way of Allen County's Success By 6 data site.

    Construction, Employment, Income, Prices, and "Miscellaneous"
Note: Each Fort Wayne area economic data section begins with a graphic presentation,and then includes data for the most recent two years, comparison percentages, definitions, and sources. In most cases, seasonal adjustments and indexing are done by CRI. Whenever possible, comparison charts for both the United States and Indiana are shown.

The data currently being used for the Fort Wayne metropolitan statistical area (MSA) consists of three counties (see below): Allen, Wells, and Whitley. ( Fort Wayne is located entirely in Allen County.)

More information on these counties can be found in the Census section, and information on MSA definitions are in the FAQ section.

Every ten years, the Office of Management and Budget reviews standards and definitions which may result in new MSAs or totally new definitions. The FW MSA has been modified and there are also new concepts: "Micropolitan Statistical Area" and "Combined Statistical Area". Both of these definitions and their relevance to the area are discussed in the FAQ section.
