Solid facts are the stuff that drives corporate site selection. And you can get a gold mine of free data at your fingertips at Development Alliance. More than 100 pieces of meaty 2007 data are online for each U.S. state, county, metro and micropolitan area, including essentials like education, income, cost of living, existing industries, unemployment and much, much more. You can even do side-by-side evaluations of as many as five locations. Or if it's global data you need, our International Guide has maps, government and economic information, and area development contacts that stretch from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe.

On July 8, IAMC member company Boeing unveiled the 787 Dreamliner during a one-hour ceremony at its Everett, Wash., final assembly facility, attended by nearly 15,000 employees, airline customers, supplier partners and government officials.
Finally, Boeing made some big aerospace news earlier this month with the debut of its 787. But it was what happened in a North American city that's called "the Cradle of Aviation" that sent the flying machine sailing into the industrial mainstream. Can you name that small town? Test your geographic savvy in our latest "Where in the World?"
