Today the Brookings Metropolitan Policy Program releases its Global MetroMonitor report - ranking the world’s 200 largest metropolitan economies for income and employment growth from 2010-2011.

Now we’ve talked to Brookings in the past about the importance of metro areas but this new study gives a detailed look at trends, and perhaps gives some surprising insight into our region’s metro areas, like Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven and Providence.
