Choosing They Right Health Plan For You While the rest of the nation has been strolling toward eco- nomic recovery, the South (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Ken- tucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Ten- nessee, Virginia and West Virginia) has been power walking. For the past three years, the region has led the United States in employment growth, adding jobs at a rate of about 3% per year, compared with 2.2% for the rest of the country. Three southern states —Georgia, Florida and North Carolina —are ranked among the top 10 job producers. Perhaps not coincidentally, the states producing the most jobs are the ones most attractive to African -Americans. A study of black buying power, conducted last year by the University of Georgia Selig Center for Economic Growth in Athens, shows that Georgia, Florida and North Carolina are among the states with the largest black markets.

F" look COVER STORY - ------------ IAMiN6000 ss GEORGIIA SOUTH For Urban Organization's Jacque Thermilus and Robert L. Tyler, the construction business is soaring around Miami's International Airport Economists say the South's strength derives from its concentration of manufac- turing, service and construction indus- tries, which tend to grow quickly at the beginning of an economic recovery. The surge in international activities is also fuel- ing commercial construction, especially around the Miami International Airport, which has undertaken a 10-year, $2 billion expansion program. This has meant big opportunities and bucks —to the tune of $42 million —for The Urban Organization Inc., a general contracting and construction manage- ment company in Miami. "We started here and tried to tailor our marketing in areas where we saw revenue being invest- ed," says Robert L. Tyler, vice president of the $18 million BE 100 INDUSTRUUSER- VICE company. "We follow the dollar. We pay attention to trends. That takes fore- casting and looking ahead." Since its founding in 1988, Urban has completed over 200 projects, valued at more than $600 million. The lion's share of the work is in the public sector. "You need a good, strong political base and laws that make it con- ducive for minorities to do business, "Tyler adds. When identifying the southern cities that offer the best opportu- nities for black entre- preneurs, some econo- mists point to Nash- ville, Birmingham and Charlotte. But far and away, their top picks are Atlanta and Miami. For almost a centu- ry, Atlanta has held the undisputed title of America's "Black Business Mecca." In the early '70s, Atlanta was the first major southern city to elect a black mayor, and one of the first to adopt an aggressive program to ensure the participa- tion of women and minorities in city contracts. Today, eight BE loos companies are headquartered in Atlanta, which is now under the leadership of Mayor Bill Campbell. Other black southern mayors include New Orleans' Marc H. Morial and Nashville's Richard Arrington. While the South's economic growth rate is expected to slow as the rest of the nation catches up in 1995, economists predict that the region will continue to enjoy a healthy economy. "Atlanta is amorphous. There's no one thing pushing us forward, and it's hard to identify the one thing that will cause the boom to end," says Dr. Thomas Cunningham, research officer and senior economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. "That makes it a really good place to do business." On the other hand, Miami is the place to go for exporting, says Cunningham. The city serves as the pipeline to Latin America, a region —particularly in the case of Chile, Argentina and Brazil --growing faster than our traditional trading partners.
