The importance of manufacturing jobs in Kenosha continues to diminish with only 11.7 percent or 7,769 of the total workforce of 66,362 area residents involved, a decline of 22 percent since 1990 and much lower than the statewide percentage of 16.4 percent.<ref name=Kenoshanews>Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development figures, 2017 as quoted in the Kenosha News, "[https://www.kenoshanews.com/news/local/factory-town-no-more/article_6716d522-01a4-5cc1-b96e-c5ced149315b.html Factory town no more]" by Deneen Smith, December 24, 2018</ref>

The biggest surge in Kenosha employment by percentage has been in the white-collar workforce. From 1990 to 2017, the percentage of Kenosha's workforce in business and professional services grew nearly fivefold from 3.2% of the workforce to 11%, while statewide the trend was slightly more than double. The growth has been both to due new office developments in the city, but also due to new suburban developments as Illinois workers seek more affordable housing.<ref name=Kenoshanews/>
