The Indiana Chamber of Commerce has recently published some state-wide maps with interesting county-by-county data, regarding educational levels of the current and available Hoosier workforce. Below you'll find links to these county-county maps for the State of Indiana:

I'm still trying to deduce whether or not the colors have any correlation to the values presented. They should have used some sort of gradations in colors instead.

I think, from what I can tell, Greene County (among a few others) sucks.

After looking at the graphs, it's tough to justify so many small schools in Greene County.

Per moenia urbis, perhaps an adjustment in thinking: Greene County is ripe for entrepreneurial development and limitless opportunities. Try thinking of the "problems" as opportunities to make things better.

Your response is not exactly a surprise with the postname "My Man Mitch".
