Xavier University’s American Dream Composite Index™ (ADCI) measures the
extent to which people living in the United States achieve the American
Dream. The ADCI is based on a random sample of no fewer than 1,000
adults who are surveyed online each month, with at least 400 respondents
recurring from the previous month.
According to the latest survey results, we are 65.18 percent of the way to fully achieving the American Dream with room to grow 34.82 percent.
Economic development professionals can use this tool to improve local public policy, infrastructure and asset
availability that contribute to making the American Dream easier to realize. CEOs will likely prefer to locate their
business operations in communities where residents perceive the American
Dream is genuinely achievable.
Launched last year, the ADCI is a useful measure that the ED pro will want to monitor and use to develop local strategic plans to
make their communities as competitive as possible
for capital attraction. More here.
