6. 6 How to interpret cluster data results The graph’s four quadrants tell a different story for each cluster. Industry cluster analysis section 02 ​ Modified from: http://www.charlestonregionaldata.com/bubble-chart-explanation/http://www.charlestonregionaldata.com/bubble-chart-explanation/ Emerging Bottom right (weak but advancing) Stars Top right (strong and advancing) Mature Top left (strong but declining) Transforming Bottom left (weak and declining) Contains clusters that are more concentrated in the region and are growing. These clusters are strengths that help a community stand out from the competition. Small, high-growth clusters can be expected to become more dominant over time. Contains clusters that are more concentrated in the region but are declining (negative growth). These clusters typically fall into the lower quadrant as job losses cause a decline in concentration. Contains clusters that are under-represented in the region but are growing, often quickly. If growth trends continue, these clusters will eventually move into the top right quadrant. Clusters in this quadrant are considered emerging strengths for the region. Contains clusters that are under-represented in the region (low concentration) and are also losing jobs. Clusters in this region may indicate a gap in the workforce pipeline if local industries anticipate a future need. In general, clusters in this quadrant show a lack of competitiveness.

Glass & Ceramics cluster does not exist in the region (has only 3 jobs).

10. 10 Bubble chart interpretation Industry and occupation section 02 Mature Industries Only one industry cluster in the South Central Mountains Region is in the Maturing stage: Arts, Entertainment, Recreation And Visitor Industries. This cluster is relatively concentrated, but its growth is trending downward. It is worth noting, however, that the South Central Mountains Region may find it worthwhile to invest in efforts to shore up the concentration of this industry. Transforming Industries Transforming clusters capture the mix of industries that are experiencing relative decline and limited export capability. In the South Central Mountains Region, transforming clusters are Energy (Fossil And Renewable); Forest And Wood Products; Information Technology And Telecommunications; Business And Financial Services; Transportation And Logistics; Advanced Materials; and Manufacturing Supercluster. Any amount of growth in these industries would require relatively large investments. Star Industries Star industry clusters are highly concentrated, exporting and still experiencing growth in the region. The only highly concentrated of the Star industry clusters in the South Central Mountains Region is Defense And Security. Its location quotient is 3.45, indicating that the cluster is 3.5 times more concentrated in the region compared to the U.S. Emerging Industries Industry clusters that may be poised for future growth are classified as “Emerging.” There are eight emerging clusters in the South Central Mountains Region: Mining; Agribusiness, Food Processing And Technology; Electrical Equip., App., And Component Manufacturing; Biomedical/Biotechnical (Life Sciences); Printing And Publishing; Education And Knowledge Creation; Apparel And Textiles; and Chemicals.. ​ Source: EMSI Class of Worker 2014.4 (QCEW, non-QCEW, self-employed and extended proprietors).
