QCEW Location Quotient Details
Data above are annual averages in 2022 for private industries. Location quotients are ratios that allow an area's distribution of employment by industry to be compared to the national average. If an LQ is equal to 1, then the industry has the same share of its area employment as it does in the nation. An LQ greater than 1 indicates an industry with a greater share of the local area employment than is the case nationwide.
