Assorted Links Tuesday

Teenage employment has bounced back to near pre-Covid levels.

Prime-age employment remains depressed at levels well below early 2020.


Site Selection Group has released their 2021 economic incentives report.  See graph below, plus there are more graphs at the link.


Uninhabitable California Bay Area shack listed for $575k.  The actual shack is pictured below.


More bad news for the Golden State of half-million-dollar shacks: California chases away citizens, startups, and, perhaps, the internet industry it invented.
