The Pew Center on the States named Utah the best managed state in the nation. While Utah unemployment grew from 2008/2009. Construction employment fell 16% while Leisure and Hospitality fell 4.7%. According to the Utah Business Magazine, unlike the other 27 lower states, Utah is dominated by 30-yr olds. But visitors are the 50-year olds that dominate the rest of the country. Utah's population is expected to grow from 2.9 million in 2010 to 3.6 million in 2020 and 4.4 in 2040. Jobs will continue to be generated by small businesses that currently make up more than 90% of the state's employers. The state economists are predicting a 1.9% increase in retail sales.
