ROCKFORD – Maybe you’d think Chicago would be among the best, but Rockford is #4 of the nation’s 10 best locations to work in manufacturing, Industry Week says.
And why is the Rockford location so great for the manufacturing workforce?
About 25% of all workers are employed in the sector. After housing costs, the average worker takes home $54,000 each year.
Industry Week is apparently onto something here. The folks pictured at Doug Sosnowski’s Spare Part Solutions (also members of the Technology & Manufacturing Association) look pretty happy with the choice they’ve made to live and work in Rockford.
