The business climate in California is improving. A new report shows the state ranks high when it comes to new business development and small business growth.

The report looked at three major indicators of business in California.

“Job creation and also the creation of new businesses and the expansion of old businesses.”

Next 10 founder Noel Perry helped author the report’s and the numbers show “California has above average and better in job creation and also in creating new businesses.”

California ranks 4th in the country in job creation and 5th in creation, of new business. In the past California had been characterized as unfriendly to business based on business tax rates but this report looks deeper and is encouraging for anyone looking to do business here.

“This is a large agro study of business creation and job creation in 2013.”

Perry does say there are some areas the state needs to improve like housing and the high cost of health care.
