Kokomo region of Indiana sees turn around thanks to auto industry bailout

11/25/2010

The Kokomo region of Indiana had been one of the hardest hit regions in the country when it came to a loss of manufacturing jobs. In June of 2009 the region saw an unemployment rate of 19.6 percent. In September of 2010 that unemployment rate was down more than eight percent to an even 11 percent. President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden were in Kokomo on Tuesday touting the bounce back of the U.S. automotive industry as one of the major reasons for Kokomo’s slow recovery from the unemployment brink.
