New Mexico’s largest metro area sits among the top 10 cities in the U.S. of communities with the highest concentration of brainpower.

New Mexico’s largest metro area sits among the top 10 cities in the U.S. in a new demographics survey conducted for American City Business Journals’ (ACBJ) of communities with the highest concentration of brainpower.

The report, produced for the New Mexico Business Weekly’s parent, ACBJ, for its Bizjournals.com Web site, says 18.4 percent of Albuquerque residents hold a bachelor’s degree, while 13.4 percent have earned a graduate or professional degree. Another 24.2 percent attended college, but didn’t earn a degree, according to U.S. Census Bureau data evaluated for the report. Writer G. Scott Thomas, special projects editor for Business First of Buffalo, a sister publication, notes in the accompanying Bizjournals.com profiles on each city that Albuquerque “doesn’t get the credit it deserves for brainpower.” For more information on Albuquerque and surrounding areas click here.
