Federal Way Economic Resiliency Dashboard


This dashboard tracks data on the Federal Way economic recovery following the impact of covid-19. Key indicators shown below follow two main categories: Small Businesses and Employment & Hiring. As traditional economic and labor market data sources have significant lag time, this dashboard pulls from a wide range of unique sources from Credit Card Transactions to Foot Traffic to Job Openings.

Data are updated as of the dates in chart footer. Each dataset has its own frequency and lag time.
