Abstract

The report provides a comprehensive socioeconomic and economic‑impact assessment of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and its surrounding TriCounty region—Los Alamos, Rio Arriba, and Santa Fe Counties. The study examines regional demographic and economic conditions, evaluates structural strengths and weaknesses, and quantifies LANL’s direct, indirect, and induced economic contributions, including employment, payroll, business activity, and tax impacts. It also analyzes two defense‑downsizing scenarios, incorporating business surveys and early‑retiree data to assess regional adjustment capacity.
