Over the past several decades, Washington County has built a strong, diverse economic base. Taking advantage of a good work force, competitive wage scale, and business-friendly policies, the county has developed several solid pillars that leave it with relatively low unemployment. These pillars include health care, government, and services ranging from retail and residential construction to call centers. At the same time, the county has continued to successfully recruit and retain a core of industrial employers that offer quality jobs. All these factors — along with the area`s outstanding quality of life — are evidenced by 2010 Census data showing Washington County`s 15 percent growth rate during the last decade — the state`s highest growth rate east of the greater Knoxville area.
