Hot JobsHot Jobs• Hot Jobs are projections of where the most family-

sustaining jobs will be created for the next ten years.

• Unlike many other projections from the public or private sectors, we include the jobs created from vacancies that come from retirements of current personnel as well as jobs created or lost because of growth or decline in the industry.

• We only include jobs on the Hot Jobs list that pay more than $12 per hour since that is the self-sufficiency wage for Lancaster County.
