Then there’s this newest number.
Wright-Patt’s working population has doubled since 2002
Wright-Patterson has a working population of 38,000 people, higher than ever before, and community leaders celebrated the milestone Monday.

NEW DETAILS: ‘Unauthorized third-party’ accessed Crown employee records in cyberattack
The latest update from Crown Equipment about this summer’s cyberattack and its aftermath came Friday evening after business hours, a sure sign that this was a release the company did not enjoy sending: Someone gained access to sensitive employee records during the recent cyberattack that interrupted manufacturing for weeks, the company said.

What the company is saying: Beyond periodic prepared statements such as Friday’s, the company has said nothing so far. No one has been made avaiable for comments or interviews.

Reporter Lynn Husley recently explored the fraught world of immigration and employment.
The law: is straightfoward enough at first glance. It is illegal to knowingly hire an immigrant who is not lawfully in the United States and does not have the government’s permission to work.
Yes, but: Then it gets tricky. All employers are required to have new employees complete a U.S. Department of Homeland Security I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification form attesting to their identity and employment authorization. And often third party staffing contractors who place employees are obligated to handle eligibility verification for those employees.
Financial health of local school districts varies considerably, driving levy debates
Some area school districts have enough cash in reserve to fund operations for a year while others have barely enough to get through a month, a new Dayton Daily News investigation found. And those with cash running low are looking to levies and cuts stay in the black.
Cash on hand — or not: Some of what our investigation found: Districts across the region vary on the amount of money they keep on-hand in relation to their budget, with New Lebanon keeping well over a year of cash on hand and Franklin keeping 10% of its annual budget in the bank.
