I dont.
What is a "true" culture and what culture is considered a "true" culture?
I always thought there is even sub cultures within a culture.Black culture is not singular. Thats not what Im saying. Black culture is African American,African,Caribbean.Elements from around the African Diaspora.Its not all shared but there are similarities that tie all of these aspects of black culture together.Like music or dance even the tone or the manner of the way we speak even though language is different.
One of my best friends is a Jewish girl who comes from 4 generations of Southern Jews in Savannah but Id say she is more Southern than Jewish.
Isn't it true Charlotte has the second largest financial district in the country?
LOL no. That's Chicago. Charlotte is no slouch but it's not close to NYC, Chicago, SF, Boston, or Philadelphia in terms of overall financial industry including actual physical financial districts

Thank You for this. DO you happen to have the source for this so I can compare year over year?

I appreciate the post.
Yes, it's from the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis. I didn't just pull these numbers out of thin air. https://www.bea.gov
Click on Tools -> Interactive Data at the top. Then under "Regional Data" on the right, click on the "GDP & Personal Income" button. Then click on the "Begin Using the data" button. Look for the "Gross Domestic Product (GDP) By County and Metropolitan Area" accordion below and then do "GDP in Current Dollars" if looking at this year. If you want to compare YOY then "Real GDP in Chained Dollars" is better. The data above is in Current Dollars.
Chicago is widely known as having the top financial industry in the US after NYC. Interestingly, Charlotte MSA's GDP has decreased $1.7B in this industry between 2013 and 2018 in terms of chained dollars which I did not expect. The top MSAs in terms of change in this time period that have data are Dallas, San Francisco, Phoenix, Miami, and San Antonio. New York City and Philadelphia actually lost GDP too. Washington DC's 2018 data is private but based on 2013 data, its similar to Charlotte.

Oh no I 100% believe you, you really cant flub these figures. I just want to make my own spreadsheet year over year

Gotcha. Yeah it's good data for a variety of industries.
It actually blows my mind how many people who don't know the financial industry very well are unaware of how big of an impact Chicago has on the financial industry as well as other things directly tied to it. It's widely known in financial circles but there are some things that are very important in the financial world that are actually based in Chicago instead of NYC. There is a reason why there are so many high frequency trading firms HQ'd in Chicago or have major offices there and why companies like Citadel are centered there still. The stock market is important obviously but there's other markets out there that are technically more important than NYSE or NASDAQ if you're talking about finance and economy.
Chicago owes its fame to the derivative market, which started at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) back in 1848 with commodity futures trading. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange is the oldest futures exchange in the world and accounts for more global derivatives trading than all exchanges in Europe and even New York.
The Chicago-based Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) clears all U.S. option contracts. Chicago is the headquarters of over 400 major corporations, and the state of Illinois has more than 36 Fortune 500 companies, most of which are located in Chicago. These companies include ConAgra, Boeing, Kraft Heinz, and Archer Daniels Midland.
Chicago also one of the most diverse economies excelling from innovation in risk management to information technology to manufacturing to health. Another financial notable is the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

I wonder where New York, Philadelphia and Charlotte made up those losses, since they all had healthy economic growth.

NYC had a huge increase in the Service Industry, a small growth in Tech, a good growth in Life Sciences.
No idea about Philly.
