Maptitude is the best mapping software for business intelligence! Maptitude mapping software allows you to incorporate data from numerous sources into your maps. We mapped the share of the civilian labor force that is employed in manufacturing by state and by county.
Each state is labeled with its share of manufacturing workers. Manufacturing employment is primarily concentrated in the Midwest and Southeast, and far exceeds the national average (9.9%) in Michigan (18.2%), Indiana (18.0%), and Wisconsin (17.9%). Conversely, apart from the District of Columbia (1.4%), states with lowest manufacturing employment are all in the West: Hawaii (2.9%), Alaska (4.1%), New Mexico (4.3%), and Wyoming (4.5%).
