Want to know which industries will show the most growth in Connecticut by 2024? If you're a proponent of limited growth, you will be happy to see that the federal government will shrink by over 20%. And don't despair if you are in the mining industry; it will grow by about 5%. Where are the mines in Connecticut? I wondered, too. It turns out that there are quite a few crushed stone and construction sand and gravel operations. Lastly, it looks like you should stay out of state government, arts and entertainment, and utilities.
