  2. INTRODUCTION: Decline in Number of MNFN Establishments between 1998 and 2008 throughout California Counties Manufacturing as a whole has declined dramatically within the U.S., California, and LA County between 1998 and 2008. In 1998, manufacturing contributed about 18% of the total annual payroll within the U.S. By 2008, it contributed only 12 percent. Within California, in 1998, manufacturing also contributed about 18% of the annual payroll to the state. By 2008, it contributed about 11 percent. In terms of establishment counts, we see that the greatest number decline between 1998 and 2008 within California has occurred within LA County. What has this decline looked like in the county and how can cluster analysis provide insights into policies which can aid the local economy?

  3. MANUFACTURING DECLINE WITHIN LA COUNTY 1998 Percentage Breakdown of Annual Payroll within LA County: 2008 Percentage Breakdown of Annual Payroll within LA County: 1998 Percentage Breakdown of Establishments within LA County:
  4. SELECTION OF APPAREL INDUSTRIES: 315232 and 315212 Within LA County, the apparel industries 315232, Women’s & Girls’ Apparel Manufacturing, and 315212, Cut and Sew Apparel Contractors ranked among the top 7 between 1998 and 2008 in terms of employee counts, establishment counts, and total annual payroll contributed to the county. 315232 In 1998, Los Angeles county had over 80 percent of the state's share of the 315232 industry. In 2008, this share increased to just under 90 percent. Due to this, Los Angeles County is used as the baseline for which to compare overall change. 315212 For the Industry 315212, this data shows that in 1998, 77% of all establishments within all counties in CA were located within La County. In 2008, this figure increased to 83 percent. Due to these findings, my baseline measure for comparing change in establishment counts, size, and employee counts is LA County as a whole, rather than the state at large or even the 5 county metropolitan area.

  11. 315232 Hotspot Analysis: Cluster Identification (LA County 1998-2008)
  12. Hot Spot AnalysisCluster Index: Calculated with Raster Calculator Variables Included: 232empch: shows the percentage change in average employee counts between 1998 and 2008 – included because places with high levels of employee growth might indicate clustering 232essc: shows the percentage change in average establishment size (by employee) between 1998 and 2008 – included because places with increase in average establishment size might indicate clustering 232lsemp: shows the percentage change of average employee counts between 1998 and 2008 within each zip divided by the change in employee counts during this time span within LA County at large – included because zip codes with a lower level of decline than the county might show signs of agglomeration/ local resilience. 232lqest: shows the percentage change in number of establishments between 1998 and 2008 within each zip divided by the change in establishment counts during this time span within LA County at large- included because zip codes with a lower level of decline than the county might show signs of agglomeration/local resilience. The four variables at right were given equal weighting in this index
