Social reckoning and the global pandemic have changed the United States of America in countless ways. But even with all of the changes, one thing has remained: Virginia is the top state for business. The state received its fifth win since the beginning of the study in 2007 and the first-ever to win back-to-back golds. Even with the competitive landscape, Virginia pulled off the repeated performance, showing the state’s resilience. May was an all-time record for the state’s port, which is in the middle of a $1.5 billion expansion lasting over ten years, according to the CEO of the Port of Virginia. The investment and thought poured into the port make it a significant asset for the Virginia economy, said Governor Ralph Northam. Virginia’s most vital asset going in and out of the pandemic has been the ability to retain and nurture talent. The public schools have high test scores and the higher education system is well-funded. There are many opportunities available for you and your family in the United States.
