Business activity in the Inland Empire is in clear-cut recovery mode and will reach pre-pandemic levels by the end of this year. Business activity in the region is forecast to rise between 6% and 10% through the end of the year.

After more than a year of pandemic-driven business closures and restrictions on activity, consumer demand is high and should drive a robust recovery in the region's labor market and broader economy.

The Center for Economic Forecasting and Development applies business expertise, understanding of public policy, and deep academic training to analyzing the regional, state, and national economy—producing economic forecasts, public policy analysis, and economic impact studies.
