Location Quotient: a measurement of concentration in comparison to the nation. All Location Quotients in JobsEQ are calculated based upon employment. An LQ of 1.00 indicates a region has the same concentration of an industry (or occupation) as the nation. An LQ of 2.00 would mean the region has twice the expected employment compared to the nation and an LQ of 0.50 would mean the region has half the expected employment in comparison to the nation.
