Florida Ranked Best State for Starting a Business

Staff Report / NPlocal.org

Florida has been recognized as the top state in the United States for starting a business, according to a recent report by Lendio. This ranking is attributed to the state's low corporate tax rate and significant consumer migration, contributing to the overall success of startups, with more than half surviving at least five years.

In North Port, this trend is evident as well. During the fiscal year 2024, over 260 new businesses have opened, highlighting the city’s economic vitality and the increasing opportunities available for entrepreneurs. For more information, readers can view the full report on the Business Observer's website.
