Independent economic analysis for governments, developers, and businesses in and around Sacramento, built on Sacramento County's own data and designed to hold up when a lender or a funder reviews it.
Sacramento County's economy runs on state government, which anchors employment across the capital region, alongside a large health care and higher education sector and a fast-growing logistics and technology base spreading east from the city. Agriculture remains real at the county's edges, in the Delta and the southern farmland.
A downtown redevelopment, a distribution center off the interstate, a health care expansion, or a Delta agricultural venture all turn on the same questions: what it genuinely adds to the regional economy, and whether it pencils under Sacramento's real costs and competition.
We answer two questions with evidence. Economic impact: what a project brings to Sacramento County, in jobs, output, and tax revenue, with local leakage handled honestly. Feasibility and viability: whether it should move forward, measured with the same finance a lender runs, including debt-service coverage against the standard floor. We also handle fiscal impact for public budgets and grant applications, and market and cost-benefit analysis for a decision to open, expand, build, or buy.
And if a study is already in hand, we audit it. We inventory every claim, attach the evidence, and tell you plainly what survives review before you quote it or fund against it. More on reading a study before you rely on it.
National firms fly in, bill the travel, and price a county like Sacramento County out of the analysis it needs. We work across the interior West, we can be on-site, and we understand these economies from the inside. Every study is built on the region's measured record from the federal statistical agencies, so the numbers trace to a public source and survive scrutiny.
