According to the findings of this section, during 2017- 2018, presence of UW-Superior had a positive and multiplicative economic impact on Superior/Douglas County. Based on expenditures by UW-Superior institution and employees, UW-Superior students and UW-Superior visitors, it can be concluded that during fiscal year 2018, UW-Superior contributed in creating 626 jobs, $44.42 million in income, and $54.41 million in output in Douglas County. Further, UW-Superior generated $3.06 million in state and local tax revenues. This implies that, in the absence of UW-Superior, the City of Superior and Douglas County would lose these output, income and employment opportunities, and tax revenues.
