Jerome County Labor Market Information

Jerome County has shown steady population growth over the last decade rising 15 percent from 17,495 in 1997 to 20,066 in 2007. Growth can partially be attributed to outstanding economic development that has taken place in Jerome County drawing in new industries that require higher skilled workers, such as Hilex Poly, manufacturer of grocery bags. The dairy industry has swelled and the resulting businesses such as Jerome Cheese, West Farm Foods Inc. and WOW Logistics have made Jerome County an appealing place to work. The population has increased accordingly which has brought in additional small retail to join Wal-Mart, the growing Con Paulos auto dealership and new schools. The population will continue to grow at a brisk pace due to affordable real estate and the addition of the Crossroads Point Business Center at I-84 and Highway 93.
