Florida lacks jobs for trained researchers
To find out how well Florida retains its college graduates, I compiled information on more than 500,000 graduates of both public and private institutions. For every person who received a degree between 1990 and 2000, I obtained their hometown city, state and ZIP code; current city, state and ZIP code; and degree year, major and level. I also analyzed data from the U.S. Department of Education and the Bureau of Labor Statistics to determine where Florida ranked in the production of key majors and degree types.
