Dan Meges of Chmura Economics & Analytics was recently quoted in The Columbus Dispatch:
The growth in personal income in Columbus and Ohio was “probably consistent with what we saw last year,” said Daniel Meges, an economist with Chmura Economics & Analytics in Cleveland. “ Last year was an ‘up’ year in a sense.” But there are worries about whether government-related income growth can keep up as government agencies, from the local level to the federal, look for ways to cut spending. Columbus could be even more vulnerable as the state capital, having so many state operations based here, Meges said. “Columbus is going to have a little harder time than the rest of the state,” Meges said.
