North Ayrshire Economic Review

This report includes a comprehensive analysis of North Ayrshire and wider Ayrshire economy. In future reports, as well as headline indicators we will focus on topical issues and also data which aims to bring new insights.

The overall picture for the North Ayrshire economy is challenging. Many of these are shared with East Ayrshire. South Ayrshire tends to be in many respects more like the Scottish average.
