Abstract
America prides itself as a place where people who work hard and don't quit can move up. However, there are concerns growing economic inequality has stymied economic mobility. This issue of PERCspectives on Policy identifies how income inequality and mobility at the county level are related to intergenerational mobility. Thriving economic conditions are shown to be positively associated with upward mobility.
