Do you want an expert opinion on how the recent ruling in the Fifth Circuit regarding the constitutionality of the Universal Service Program (USF) impacts the communications industry? I met with policy expert Blair Levin on the latest episode of All Day Digital. Spoiler alert...it's kind of a mess. Check it out. #cobank https://lnkd.in/ePxJy4Z7

As part of our ongoing work on rural demographic trends, CoBank commissioned an analysis of recently released data from the U.S. Census bureau covering the three-year period from July 2020 to July 2023. Our goal was to more rigorously understand the specific attributes of rural communities experiencing high population growth rates in the post-pandemic period. Findings from the study were intuitive, but fascinating nonetheless. Among the characteristics most strongly correlated to growth were the following: -- Proximity to a major city (defined as within 90 miles); -- Having a high percentage of jobs in finance, insurance or real estate (presumably because these jobs are amenable to remote work); -- Newer housing stock (defined as housing built after 2010); -- Natural beauty & amenities; -- A lower tax burden. My thanks to Matthew Brooks, a professor with the Center for Demography & Population Health at Florida State University, for his work conducting this analysis. Professor Brooks’ full report is available here: https://bit.ly/4d5XpxM

Today I had the opportunity to help our Hispanic ARG give back to the kids in our community! We partnered with the nonprofit Kenzi’s Causes-Packz 4 Kidz, and stuffed 150 backpacks with school supplies for elementary kids going back to school. 🎒 ✏️📓 I am so thankful to have shared this moment with my amazing coworkers! Thank you to our CoBank Hispanic ARG for hosting such an incredible event! 👏🏼
