There are a number of things which contribute to labor shortages, especially here. With continued growth of businesses in the area, comes a greater demand for employees. At this point, I believe the demand has outgrown the labor pool. There are simply not enough people in the area to fill the vacancies. In addition, there is little incentive for workers to move here as there is not place to live. There are very few affordable apartments in the area. Put this together with the government subsidies and workers are simply saying no to work
