The 2010 Milken Institute Best-Performing Cities Index ranks U.S. metropolitan areas by how well they are creating and sustaining jobs and economic growth. The components include job, wage and salary, and technology growth. In most years, these give a good indication of the underlying structural performance of regional economics.

Cool...

I don't know why they divided so many of the MSAs up further into their component metropolitan divisions though. It makes things less comparable. Why not keep them all as MSAs rather than making it a mix of MSAs and MDs? It's like comparing a bunch of apples to a bunch of apple peices and saying they're all the same.
