A while back, I mentioned that AZ and MI should be fairly competitive in terms of operating costs when compared to other low cost countries AFTER you throw in American productivity.

Well this IBM competition was within the US and did not consider other countries but look at the cities that were considered finalists. Nearly all were in the Midwest and are non tech centers that have not experienced a lot of growth in recent years.

In landing IBM center, Dubuque offers lessons for Milwaukee

The other finalists considered by the company were all midsize communities that house major universities: Greenville, S.C., home of Clemson University; Morgantown, W.Va. (West Virginia University); Bloomington, Ind. (Indiana University); Columbia, Mo. (University of Missouri); and Laramie, Wyo. (University of Wyoming).
