Based at the University of Alabama, the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) works on crafting key policy updates and research briefs to provide information about business in the state. On the homepage, visitors will find sections that include News, Research Briefs, Publications, and Economic Forecasting. The Research Briefs cover timely reports like "Alabama: Rural or Urban? 'It Depends'" and "A Cost-Benefit Analysis of the New Alabama Immigration Law." In the Publications area, visitors can look over the "Alabama Business" quarterly report, which publishes information on population and other socioeconomic issues. The Alabama Indicators area includes population estimates, income and poverty levels, and detailed tables about the gross domestic product.
