Figures Show Substantial Increase in Pennsylvania Exports

It's good to see Pennsylvania is exporting something other than people (The United Van Lines 2008 migration study, detailing shipments into and out of each state, shows 58% of movement leaving Pennsylvania, ranking as the 4th highest outbound state.)

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Pennsylvania exports increased from $15.3 billion in 2002 to $32 billion in 2008, or about 20 percent. Pennsylvania is the 11th largest exporting state with the fastest growing export sectors, including petroleum products, coal, iron and steel alloys, vehicles, aircrafts, scrap metal and machinery, according to the state.
