Employment Projections

In 2000 the Central Massachusetts Region was home to approximately 245,000 jobs, about 7% of the jobs in Massachusetts. This number has decreased to 224,000 in 2010, and in 2040 the region is expected to host 244,000 jobs, about 6.9% of the total jobs in Massachusetts. As part of this effort, the  University of Massachusetts Donahue Institute produced employment projections by "Supper Sector".  Below are links to interactive charts that show the total populations projected for the years 2020, 2030 and 2040 by supper sector.
