Richmond County faces this predicament if it wants to make a dent in its high poverty rate: It needs to recruit higher-paying jobs, but those middle class income jobs are disappearing from the economy.

They are solid jobs, but they don't pay enough to help a person reach middle class status, said Gary Burtless, an economist at The Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C.
