What did we say last year about the Louisville region?
Published December 2023
A recession chance is eliminated for 2023, but slower growth is only delayed to 2024. The impact of higher interest rates will weigh on consumers and eventually, we will see a pullback in consumer spending and business investment. Slower growth will occur in 2024, but the economy may escape a full-blown recession. If any recession is declared, we are not expecting it to be severe. For the Louisville metro, we will see unemployment rates around the 4.5% level and the metro area will add about 8,000 jobs, representing a slight slowdown from 2023. Southern Indiana payroll growth is also expected to decelerate from the strong payroll growth of 2022 and early 2023.
