Economic Growth in Delaware Since the Great Recession

In the decade that followed the largest economic crisis in recent history, the economy’s slow recovery has played out unevenly across states. According to a recent study conducted by the Pew Charitable Trusts, growth over the past decade has been fastest in North Dakota, where the combined personal income of its residents has risen at six times the rate of last-place Connecticut. However, North Dakota was one of a handful of states where personal income growth—a measure of the economy—contracted in late 2017 and early 2018, even as the U.S. pace accelerated.

    This is by far the worst article I have ever read online. I came here expecting at least a brief explanation of Delaware’s outcome from the great recession and received a compare and contrast about North Dakota and Connecticut. this should be removed asap or updated; either update the name of this paragraph or remove it. very misleading and does not qualify as a credible source on any level
